New York Presbyterian Hospital (Cornell Campus) Program

New York Presbyterian Hospital (Cornell Campus) Psychiatry Residency Program offers a comprehensive four-year training program in adult psychiatry for up to forty-eight residents. Residents have the opportunity to train at diverse clinical sites such as the NewYork-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell Medical Center in Manhattan, NewYork-Presbyterian Westchester Behavioral Health Center, Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, and Lincoln Hospital in the Bronx.

The program's faculty consists of over 160 full-time and 400 voluntary members, providing expertise in clinical psychiatry, scholarship, and research. Residents are equipped to become future leaders in the field through robust training in clinical skills and participation in empirical investigation.

The Weill Cornell Psychiatry Residency Program encourages lifelong scholarship engagement in various patient care viewpoints and integrates phenomenological, biological, psychodynamic, and socio-cultural perspectives. The program prides itself on offering unparalleled psychotherapy training, combining clinical experience, expert teaching, and extensive supervision.

Furthermore, the program is committed to promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion. Efforts in recruitment, education, patient care, community-building, and research reflect core values of the program. The residents and faculty engage in dialogues around structural racism and work towards addressing inequities in the system.

Application to the program must be submitted through the Electronic Residency Application Service (ERAS). The program typically recruits for 10 PGY-1 positions annually, starting in June. While there are no specific board score requirements, applicants are expected to have passed Step 1 and Step 2 exams before beginning residency.

International Medical Graduates (IMGs) must hold a valid ECFMG certificate and a copy of their USMLE Step 1 scores. The program does not provide visa sponsorship and only accepts applicants with J1 visas.
