"I chose your residency program over others for several reasons. First, my sister was a resident in your pediatric pharmacy program and highly recommended the training and guidance she received. Secondly, your program was the first pediatric pharmacy residency program in the country. After researching your program in greater depth, I was excited to see that you offer many opportunities in research, teaching, and patient care. You offer pathways for residents with specific career interests in medical education, patient safety, quality improvement, and global health. After reading all you have to offer and with the recommendation from my sister, there is no other program I would rather attend."
