9 Optional
Optional Open House
Fridays - Jan 24th and Jan 31st from 11:45 am to 2:30 pm (Central Time Zone)
We will have lunch with all the residents, followed by a tour.
This is entirely optional and offered to support the potential interest of candidates to see the facility and the residency program in person.
Attendance and/or RSVP at this open house will not influence our rank list.
Baylor has established a policy for all Baylor residencies mandating that rank lists be finalized and submitted to the NRMP before open houses are conducted.
We are trying to balance fairness with opportunities to support interest.
