Does anyone know about the deadlines for Peds GI application for this year? I tried looking on the NRMP, ERAS, and NASPHAN sites and they don't list specific dates when I have to have the application in by.
Thanks.

The short answer is as early as possible. Most interviews will likely occur in late summer and early fall. Fellowship programs interview a smaller number of candidates and overall have fewer interview dates to offer. So don't wait too long.

Not sure when the deadline is, but ERAS website says July 15th is the first day that you can submit applications (see top of page on the link). I recommend submitting as soon as you can after ERAS opens.

Thanks. Now for the personal statement, is there a prompt, or is it just "Why do you want to do peds GI"?

No prompt, just highlight your experiences, why you are interested, what your goals are after fellowship, etc, etc. And keep it to 1 page.
