Offered residency position after accepted internship...

[joaquin13]

I was wondering if anyone has gone through a similar situation. I did not match this year, and was unsuccessful with the scramble. (the spots were gone in an hour or so!). Anyway I verbally confirmed an internship position, was sent the contract, but haven't signed it yet. I just heard from a residecy program that they want to offer me the position, which of course I accepted. What do I do about the internship spot? FYI, I'm a DO student and theinternship was a DO traditional internship, and the residency is an allopathic PGY1-3 program. Thanks for advice.

hold off on telling the DO program until you have the allopathic contract in hand. It is not the best situation to back out of the DO program, but as you haven't signed anything and didn't get the position through the match, you are not legally obligated. morally ..... but you need to do what you need to do for your career.
