THORACIC SURGERY (INTEGRATED) · APPLICATION CYCLE 2026–2027
Track your Thoracic Surgery (Integrated) residency applications — every program, signal, and interview.
36 programs, 20 states — that's the entire Thoracic Surgery (Integrated) footprint in CycleDoc's directory, one of the smallest specialty counts tracked here, reflecting how new and selective this six-year, PGY-1-start pathway still is. AAMC's signal allowance is just 4, flat, no gold tier, which leaves little room for a spray-and-pray approach to signaling. Because the pool of programs is so small, this page shows every one currently in the directory, not a sample of it.
Built by a former residency director of medical education and core faculty member who read thousands of applications.

THORACIC SURGERY (INTEGRATED) SPECIFIC
Why are there so few Thoracic Surgery-Integrated programs?
It's one of the newest integrated surgical pathways ACGME accredits, and a small one by design — CycleDoc's directory reflects that directly, rather than a gap in the data. Cross-check the count on this page against ACGME's own program search if you want to verify it independently.
Since this page shows every Thoracic Surgery (Integrated) program, will it always be complete?
Only as complete as CycleDoc's last directory import — new program accreditations do happen. If you know of an accredited program missing from this list, it's worth double-checking ACGME's own program search directly before finalizing your list.
