PHYSICAL MEDICINE AND REHABILITATION · APPLICATION CYCLE 2026–2027
Track your Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation residency applications — every program, signal, and interview.
PM&R runs both categorical (four-year, PGY-1 start) and advanced (three-year, PGY-2 start with a separate preliminary year) programs, so check which structure applies before assuming your list only needs one application track. 116 PM&R programs appear in the directory, spanning 36 states, with a 20-signal budget, flat, no gold tier — generous for a mid-sized specialty.
Built by a former residency director of medical education and core faculty member who read thousands of applications.

PHYSICAL MEDICINE AND REHABILITATION SPECIFIC
Some PM&R programs start at PGY-1, others at PGY-2 — does that change how I should use CycleDoc?
No — the tracker fields (deadlines, signals, interviews) work identically regardless of when a program starts. The only manual step is noting which of your PM&R programs are categorical versus advanced yourself, since the directory doesn't currently store that distinction.
