Fellowship Match Program

 

Congratulations to the newest Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Fellows! AOFAS is proud to welcome you to the specialty.

 

The AOFAS-sponsored Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Fellowship Match is a transparent, unbiased process that matches applicants to foot and ankle fellowship programs on a competitive basis. Participation in the match requires graduation from an allopathic or osteopathic medical school, and fellowship is dependent upon successful completion of an approved orthopaedic surgery residency program. The match is administered by SF Match Residency and Fellowship Services.

 

SF Match will allow all fellowship program applicants to "signal" programs that they are very interested in. With the signaling process, applicants will have up to 10 "tokens" to indicate to prospective programs their high interest, along with their standard application and interview process.

AOFAS does not require programs to take into consideration any signals received, and we encourage applicants to apply and interview at any program they are interested in, not just programs they signal.
