In this work, we use the Ge and Ren extension of Mawhin's coincidence degree theory to investigate the solvability of the $p$-Laplacian fractional order boundary value problem of the form $$ \begin{aligned} & \left(\phi_p\left(D_{0+}^\alpha x(t)\right)\right)^{\prime} \\ = & f\left(t, x(t), D_{0+}^{\alpha-3} x(t), D_{0+}^{\alpha-2} x(t), D_{0+}^{\alpha-1} x(t), D_{0+}^\alpha x(t)\right), \quad t \in(0,+\infty), \\ & x(0)=0=D_{0+}^{\alpha-3} x(0), \quad D_{0+}^{\alpha-2} x(0)=\int_0^1 D_{0+}^{\alpha-2} x(t) d A(t), \\ & \lim _{t \rightarrow+\infty} D_{0+}^{\alpha-1} x(t)=\sum_{i=1}^m \mu_i D_{0+}^{\alpha-1} x\left(\xi_i\right), \quad D_{0+}^\alpha x(\infty)=0, \end{aligned} $$ where $3<\alpha \leq 4$. The conditions $\int_0^1 d A(t)=1, \quad \int_0^1 t d A(t)=0$, $\sum_{i=1}^m \mu_i=1$ and $\sum_{i=1}^m \mu_i \xi_i^{-1}=0$ are critical for resonance.
