A. UCSF Resident Selection and Appointment Policy

It is the policy of UCSF and its affiliated hospitals that programs do not discriminate with regard to sex, race, age, religion, color, national origin, sexual orientation, disability or veteran status.

UCSF Programs select from among eligible applicants on the basis of the applicant’s preparedness and ability to benefit from the program in which they are appointed. Aptitude, academic credentials, personal characteristics such as motivation and integrity, and ability to communicate are considered in the selection.

Residents are required to complete attestation statements regarding malpractice claims, drug and alcohol abuse, disciplinary action and criminal activity as a condition of appointment. Any “yes” response to these statements demands an answer. After review of a residents explanation of “yes” statements, an offer of a contract for training may be revoked or the conditions of the offer revised.

Eligibility is defined in a separate policy.
