ERAS, or the Electronic Residency Application Service, is a service provided by the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC) that allows medical students to apply for residency programs in the United States.
Including a professional headshot with your ERAS application can be a good idea for a few reasons. First, a professional headshot can help you to make a good first impression on the residency program directors and selection committees who will be reviewing your application. A professional headshot can help you to appear polished and professional, which can be particularly important in the highly competitive field of medical residency.

How Should I Prepare for ERAS VSAS Residency Headshots?
There are three keys to preparing for your headshot ahead of time.
First, if possible, try to get some sleep, exercise, and sunshine in the weeks before your session. Our editing team airbrushes your selected photos before delivering them, but your preparation will help ensure that the photos look as natural as possible.
Second, briefly wear your desired clothing a couple of days before your session. You want to ensure that your outfit still fits correctly and doesn’t need dry cleaning.
Third, look at some prior photos of yourself and see if there are any that you particularly like. When you arrive at the studio, show those photos to your photographer, which will help us find an angle that you find flattering.
