National Resident Matching Program (NRMP)

The NRMP matches applicants with available residency positions. You are required to register with NRMP by the NRMP Late Registration deadline in order to participate in the 2012 Match.

Additionally, you must meet NRMP’s examination requirements, and your passing examination results must be available in time to participate. If you have not yet taken and passed USMLE Step 2 Clinical Skills (CS), please see the Step 2 CS Schedule for Reporting Results. You should also read this important announcement about registering for Step 2 CS. You are not required to have satisfied the medical education credential requirements for ECFMG Certification in order to participate in the Match.

If you are not matched to a position through the Match, you may be eligible to participate in the NRMP Supplemental Offer and Acceptance Program (SOAP), which replaces the former post-Match Scramble.

For information on Match registration and requirements, visit the NRMP website.
