All prospective podiatric residents wishing to apply to the Jewish Hospital will partake in the CASPR application process. The Director of Podiatric Medical Education, Director of Podiatry and the PGY-2 and PGY-3 resident generally attend the CASPR weekend for the CENTRAL location. This is held in Chicago, usually in January.
