HUCM Annual Residency Fair

The Howard University College of Medicine Residency Fair, hosted by the HUCM Student Council, is a student-led initiative that brings together residency programs from across the country and medical students from the DMV and beyond.

This annual event provides a unique opportunity for residency programs to meet and engage directly with prospective applicants in an open and collaborative setting. Programs are able to showcase their specialties, highlight away elective and research opportunities, and share insights about their training environment.

Unlike a traditional job fair, the Residency Fair is a symposium for connection and mentorship—a space where students and program representatives can exchange knowledge, build relationships, and help shape the next generation of physician leaders. The fair is open to Howard medical students as well as students from other institutions, making it a vibrant and diverse networking experience.

Program Registration.

Residency programs are invited to register annually for the Howard University College of Medicine Residency Fair. Registration provides programs with a dedicated booth where representatives can meet directly with medical students, share information about their training opportunities, and answer questions in an engaging, student-led setting.

In addition to booth space, programs may also choose to purchase advertisements in the official Residency Fair Program Booklet, which is distributed to all attending students. This booklet is a valuable way to highlight your program’s unique strengths, electives, and opportunities beyond the fair itself.
