Student resources
Tools, templates, and learning modules for medical students interested in psychiatry, applying to residency, or advising on the Match.
Psychiatry Standardized Letter of Recommendation (SLOR)
The updated Psychiatry SLOR template helps letter writers and applicants produce clearer, more comparable letters of recommendation. The template is a Microsoft Word document so it can be filled in and returned easily.
