Some commenters raised concerns about mentorship and support within the department, while others referenced a leadership transition and an internal review tied to resident survey feedback. A few posts also noted lower-than-expected match numbers in a recent cycle.

lies on the Texas programs being workhorse. There are definitely chill programs here. More reasons to take people's opinions cautiously.

Anyone know the parking situation at WashU for rotators?

#4302025–2026 DermFeb 21

why are you asking this group? Email the coordinator or site director q

it's almost as if they're asking here because people might know the answer. By your logic, lets just get rid of this whole sheet because there are certainly other places for people to talk and ask questions

do not waste your time with WashU. I've known so many people who rotated there and did not get interviews

Incoming M1 here deciding between WashU and Vandy. Cost is the same. Can someone give me advice on which to choose? I heard WashU did pretty bad in the derm match this year and don't want to be held back since derm is one of the specialties i am really looking into when starting medical school. Does anyone know if WashU supports their derm applicants?

#35402025–2026 DermMar 26

Both schools are excellent when it comes to their Derm residency programs. I would go with personal fit. Maybe weather. I think both are true P/F in preclinical.

Not sure what you mean by what you heard in terms of Wash U and the Derm Match this year, but both medical schools are excellent when it comes to their respective Derm residency programs as your home program. I would go with personal fit. Maybe even weather (Nashville vs. St. Louis). I think both are true P/F in preclinical so they're equal there. In past years, Wash U has done just fine when it comes to their internal applicants going for Derm.
