The Centralized Application Service for Podiatric Residencies (CASPR) is a national, centralized application processing and computerized matching service for the placement of podiatric medical school graduates into podiatric medical and surgical residency programs. This program of residency selection has been serving both applicants and residency program directors and faculty since 1976.

The Centralized Residency Interview Program (CRIP) is a centralized gathering of residency candidates and podiatric resident selection committees at one time and one place for the purpose of interviewing. CRIP saves time and money for both applicants and hospital programs. CRIP takes place on three consecutive weekends in January across the country on a rotating schedule.
