NEUROLOGY · APPLICATION CYCLE 2026–2027
Track your Neurology residency applications — every program, signal, and interview.
Neurology is usually an advanced position — three years of neurology starting at PGY-2, built on a separate preliminary year most applicants secure through Internal Medicine or Transitional Year — though categorical programs that bundle both exist too. 204 Neurology programs, 47 states, an eight-signal budget with no gold tier — a tight ceiling compared to some of the larger surgical specialties this directory covers.
Built by a former residency director of medical education and core faculty member who read thousands of applications.

NEUROLOGY SPECIFIC
Neurology's signal budget (8, no gold) is smaller than a lot of other specialties. Why?
AAMC sets each specialty's allowance independently, and CycleDoc reports the sourced number rather than guessing at the reasoning. Practically, 8 flat signals means less room to hedge — most applicants use them on programs where they're a genuinely strong fit, not as a wide net.
If I need a separate preliminary year for Neurology, does CycleDoc track both application lists?
Yes — track your preliminary-year programs (Internal Medicine or Transitional Year, typically) as a separate specialty list alongside Neurology. Both run through the same NRMP Main Match and the same March dates, so the deadlines on this page apply to your prelim search too.
