A personal interview is required for all applicants being considered for acceptance into the program. This allows for an opportunity to meet individually with the Program Director, faculty, and some of the residents. A resident will introduce you to the faculty and other residents, be your host for lunch, and acquaint you with the Center For Family Medicine in Minot, hospital facilities, and community.

Personal interviews for eligible candidates are granted once initial required materials have been received. These meetings are intended to allow questions and expectations to be addressed in a relaxed manner. Your spouse or significant other is certainly welcome and encouraged to participate in the interview.

Interviews are conducted September 1 through January 31. Arrangements can be made by contacting the residency coordinator.

First year applicants are accepted through the National Resident Match Program.
