Traveling to Canton

Airports:
  • The Akron-Canton Airport (CAK) is the closest airport to the Canton area, near to both the local hotels and Aultman Hospital. It is approximately 10-15 minutes from the hospital.
  • The Cleveland Hopkins International Airport (CLE) is the next closest major airport and is approximately 60-90 minutes from the Canton area, depending on traffic.
  • The Pittsburgh and Columbus airports are the next closest and are over 2 hours worth of driving.

Hotels:
  • The Belden Village Mall area is a commercial area with plenty of hotels, restaurants, and stores to choose from, located less than 10 minutes from the hospital. The Holiday Inn at Belden Village (4520 Everhard Rd NW, Canton, OH 44718) is the program's preferred hotel, and reimbursement for your stay may be provided.

Interview Day

Interview Day:
  • Out of consideration for your time, we do not do pre-interview dinners.  Instead, during the interview day, interviewees will join residents at a local restaurant to break bread over lunch, get to know the residents, and have any last questions answered.
  • The interview day is scheduled from 7:30am until 3:00pm.  It usually does not last until 3:00pm and arrangements can be made for those needing to depart sooner.
