As we are an advanced program, applicants have the freedom to choose where to complete their PGY1 year. However, for those applicants that choose to spend their PGY1 year with us, we offer 3 guaranteed spots at the North Shore/LIJ preliminary year program and 6 other guaranteed spots across two partnered Northwell hospitals in the area. Three spots are with the South Shore University Hospital transitional year program, and three are with the Mather Hospital transitional year program. Interested applicants should apply to each of the PGY1 programs separately, but will easily be able to rank a linked program with our neurology residency through the NRMP.
Applicants who are interested in our Northwell PGY1 programs should apply to these programs early. South Shore University Hospital requires a separate interview but Mather and North Shore University/LIJ PGY1 programs do not.
