Survey on the Application Timeline for Behavioral Neurology & Neuropsychiatry Fellowship Programs.

Complete responses were received from 22 program directors and from 11 current and six incoming fellows, within a span of 17 months between the first application opening (August postgraduate year 3) and the last position offering (December postgraduate year 4).

Although not a statistically significant finding, 41% of the fellows reported that different application timelines prevented them from completing interviews for all their desired programs, and 88% agreed with a unified timeline (p=0.002).
