As we are all aware, the 2021 application year looks different than previous years. Accordingly, the UNC EM Residency Program stands with the CORD and EMRA consensus statements, which allow for increased flexibility regarding the number and type of letters of recommendation (LORs) accepted. To be specific, we will require a minimum of 2 LORs by September 30, one of which should be a Standardized Letter of Evaluation (SLOE) fulfilling one of the four options listed at https://www.cordem.org/resources/residency-management/sloe/. We understand that institutional variation has prohibited many applicants from obtaining a traditional eSLOE and we will be reviewing applicants with that knowledge in mind. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any questions.
