FAQs

What type of Visas do you offer?
SIU and its affiliated hospitals do not, as a matter of policy or practice, sponsor residents/fellows for H visas or benefits. Please review the Office of Graduate Medical Education's Resident Eligibility and Employment Authorization Policy. Learn more about Visas here.

What is a typical interview day?
We are conducting all the interviews in a virtual format, honoring social distancing guidelines related to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. We will be using Zoom to conduct all the interviews. The interview day will begin with an orientation by the program director highlighting the SIU Orthopedic Adult Reconstruction Fellowship program. You will then individually meet with faculty members, our current fellow, and the Program Director.
