Anyone in an international medical school, or a recent graduate from an international medical school who is planning to apply for a residency spot in the United States, now or in the future, should consider using IMG Mentors.

Using IMG Mentors is a way to ensure you are putting your best application forward. Our expert mentors review hundreds of applications annually, including IMG applications and know exactly what it takes to secure an interview and to be a strong candidate.

Unlike other services offered to IMGs, IMG Mentors provides the only service whose mentors are come directly from US Residency Program Leadership. Our mentors are the ones who review applications for their own programs and know exactly what a competitive applicant looks like. This gives you the advantage of having someone review and help you with your process and application who truly knows what it takes to succeed.

Our Early Career Guidance and Full Service mentorship options are more impactful the earlier you start, and are available to anyone.

Our ERAS services are best used before or during the summer you are applying to ERAS.

Since our services are dependent on mentor availability, some of them are only offered in a limited quantity. Because of this, we recommend reaching out to us as soon as you know you want to book, so we can secure your spot and book in advance if needed.

No, we do not provide LOR writing services. We read through THOUSANDS of LORs each match season and when an applicant has paid for a LOR it is very apparent and can hurt your application. Instead, we can help provide guidance on how to ask for LORs and how to best guide your LOR writers so you can get strong letters even from international faculty.
