Once you have made sure you are eligible, it is time to choose your location preferences. We cannot promise that you will be placed in your first choice of location.

Submission Date

The deadline this year is May 1, 2023, to apply for a fellowship in 2024. Applications must be submitted before 1 May in the year preceding the fellowship you are applying for.

The results of the application process will be communicated in the month of October. Sending emails asking for your result will not speed up this process. It is not possible for us to communicate the result of your application before this date.

After Selection

After your selection, all communication will run via the designated secretary of the fellowship unit you have been appointed. This might be direct with your host surgeon, or it may be with their secretary or a program co-ordinator.

Fellowship Coursebook

Once accepted you will receive a coursebook which contains all the relevant information you would need in preparation for your fellowship.
