Anyone apply to their new program? They aren't on ERAS but say they will be participating in NRMP.
I know for med school, UWashington has a heavy bias towards students from the NW (this is what i've heard, please correct me if i've been misled)- are they going to have the same bias towards residency applicants or will they be like most programs where all interviewees have a reasonable shot? I'm trying to decide if it'd be worth the hefty expense of flights/hotel.
Have people not from the pacific NW heard anything from them recently about interviews?

But, it will easily become a top EM residency program very quickly because of the pathology, attendings/staff, off-service rotations, reputation, and simply geographic desirability.
Anyone who is considering this place as an attending have an opinion?
I am particularly concerned about the relationship between trauma and EM and, more importantly, EM and CCM.
Any EM attendings considering a switch to Seattle?

It would be exeptional training to be in the first year of any residency program. EVERY intubation in the department is yours, EVERY procedure is yours. There isn't enough residents to see all the patients to the attendings are pitching in to move the meat and you can cherry-pick the interesting/sick patients. An entire year devoted to teaching the first year residents and getting them up to speed. I don't see a downside.
From what I know, the issue with UW is that they aren't offering away rotators this year because all of their M4s need to rotate in the ED and there isn't much space.
Bump.
Anyone want to chime in on the program today? Strengths/weaknesses? Competitiveness for getting an away and/or interview?
