Can I afford to live in Silicon Valley or the Bay Area on a residents salary?
Though rents are expensive, all of our residents are living comfortably. In addition to your salary, the program covers the cost of your medical license, USMLE III, and meals when on duty. Additionally, the GME Office provides an educational allowance for tuition and travel to a conference annually. A book allowance of $500 for each PGY 1 and 2, and $750 for each PGY 3 and 4 is provided.
