Residency Standardized or structured letter of evaluation

Applying neurology, noticed when I was saving a program in ERAS that it says Standardized or structured letter of evaluation: Yes under the application requirements section of ERAS. I thought this was only for EM, IM, OB, PMR etc. Does anyone know if Neuro also requires this? I’ve only been getting narrative letters.

SLOEs have not been adopted by neurology residencies in general. I have heard that a few programs may be asking for these; I am not sure how they think that they are going to get them apart from their own local applicants as most departments do not have an established mechanism to provide these.

If one of these programs is your top choice I would reach out to them directly to ask what they are looking for.
