BIPOC QUESTIONS FOR CAFÉ APPLICATION
Tips for Prospective Applicants to the BIPOC Residency:
We offer you a list here of the application questions that will require a written response. Your application process will go smoother if you review and write your answers BEFORE you start your application on CAFÉ. Once you are ready to start your application, you can cut and paste your answers into the text boxes. Most of these questions limit your answer to 1000 characters except the question about adversity; that one allows 2000 characters. Good luck!
