ElevateMeD Scholars 100% Match Rate since 2021

#MATCH2022

ElevateMeD is proud to celebrate alongside our eight (8) ElevateMeD Scholars on their #MatchDay2022 results!

 
 

Match Day took place on March 18, 2022 at 12pm EST. As shared on this year’s press release at https://www.nrmp.org/

Match Day is when domestic and international medical school students and graduates learn in which U.S. residency programs they will train. Match Day marks the end of Match Week and is a widely embraced, ceremonial opportunity for participants to join friends, family, and peers and reflect on their accomplishments as they begin the transition to careers as young physicians.

Since our Scholars Program launched in 2020:

  • We’ve welcomed 20 students into the program.

  • In 2021, five (5) Scholars from our inaugural cohort graduated and successfully matched at programs across the country, with four matching at their #1 choice.

  • This year, our fourth year students also had a 100% match rate, with six of our eight scholars matching at their #1 choice, and two at a top 5 choice.

We look forward to these eight graduating this Spring and venturing into the next chapter on their journey to medicine.
