How to Apply

UT Southwestern Medical Center is pleased to be able to offer two (2) ACGME-accredited Advanced Heart Failure and Transplant Cardiology fellowship positions per academic year.

Interviews

The Advanced Heart Failure and Transplant Cardiology fellowship will be conducting interviews in September.

  • Thursday, September 5, 2024
  • Friday, September 6, 2024

Incoming fellows are required to have successfully completed an ACGME-accredited Cardiovascular Disease fellowship prior to the start of their Advanced Heart Failure and Transplant Cardiology fellowship. In addition, incoming fellows must have a valid license or training permit from the Texas Medical Board, as well as current BLS and ACLS certifications.

Advanced Heart Failure and Transplant Cardiology fellowship programs across the country, including UT Southwestern Medical Center, are now utilizing the Electronic Residency Application Service (ERAS) to streamline the application process. In order to apply for a position for the 2025-2026 academic year, please submit a completed application through ERAS. Your application should include the following:

  • An updated Curriculum Vitae (CV)
  • A personal statement
  • A USMLE score report including scores for Steps 1, 2CK, and 3
  • At least three (3) – but no more than four (4) – letters of recommendation (LORs). LORs should be from faculty who can comment on your clinical, procedure, and interpersonal skills.
    • We require that one of your LORs be from your Cardiovascular Diseases Fellowship Program Director.

Fellowship candidates may begin applying to our program as early as July 2024. We strongly encourage interested applicants to submit their applications as early as possible as we offer interviews on a rolling basis. We regret that we are unable to accept applications received outside of ERAS.

Per UT Southwestern policy, we are only able to accept incoming trainees who are United States citizens, permanent residents, or have J-1 ECFMG certified visas. We are unable to offer H1-B visas or any other type of visa.
