Fees

Tiered Application Fee (US Dollars)

10 or fewer Applications - $95.00

11 to 20 Applications - $260.00

21 or more Applications - $365.00

The Tiered Application Fee system provides the opportunity to select a tier that includes the number of applications that most closely represents the number of programs to which you intend to apply. Analysis of previous VIRMP results shows that ranking an excessive number of programs does not increase the likelihood of matching. Submitting many applications and subsequently ranking only a few is of no advantage to participants and complicates the evaluation process by institutions and private practices. The VIRMP encourages participants to apply only to programs they intend to rank.

If you intend to apply to both internships and residencies, you will select a tier for each match. You should select a tier that corresponds to the number of applications you intend to submit for that match. Again, we encourage you to apply only to programs you intend to rank.

You can select a higher application tier later; however, you will not be allowed to select a lower tier because all fees are non-refundable.

Note: These fees are payable to the AAVC. Institutions may have their own application fees.

An online account cannot be activated until the application fee is received. The fee is payable online via Mastercard, Visa or Discover.

You can create an online account after the fee is paid. This account will allow you to create your online application packet and rank programs.

How To Get Started

You can get started by clicking on "Create an Account" and following the instructions to set up an applicant account. Rankings do not have to be completed when you set up your account or all at one time.
