OTOLARYNGOLOGY SPECIFIC

Does Otolaryngology (ENT) run through a separate match, like Ophthalmology or Urology?

No — Otolaryngology matches entirely through the standard NRMP Main Residency Match, on the same calendar as most of medicine. It's sometimes confused with specialties that do run separately (Ophthalmology, via SF Match; Urology, via the AUA), but ENT isn't one of them.

FAQ

Reasonable questions.

How is this different from Residency Explorer?

Residency Explorer helps you decide where to apply. CycleDoc runs the cycle after you've decided — tracking what you submitted, where your signals went, which deadlines are next, which interviews conflict, and how your own invite rates are trending. Most applicants use both.
