Include information on your Web site specifically addressed to international medical graduates.  The more information you have online, the fewer phone calls and emails you will receive from prospective applicants seeking additional information.

 

Also, consider sending compact discs or slide presentations to applicants or give those to them at the time of interview.  These could highlight aspects of your program that are particularly strong, include curriculum and contract information, policies and procedures, and salary and benefits information.  You could also include information on your city and the surrounding area.

 

In addition, any medical schools host residency fairs for their senior students.  Programs are invited to send representatives to host a booth or provide materials about their program to prospective students who may be interested.
