The University of New England College of Osteopathic Medicine holds our Match Day celebration in March, along with dozens of other medical schools around the country.
Match Day is the date each year when fourth-year medical students who participate in the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education match learn where they will be completing their medical residencies, and in what specialty, following graduation. You are notified via email of your residency location and specialty, but if you attend a Match Day event, you find out your match earlier in the day. Other medical students may participate in the military match or the American Osteopathic Association match, both of which occur earlier in the year.
The purpose of Match Day is to give you the chance to celebrate this monumental occasion with your families, friends, COM faculty and staff, and peers who you will hopefully maintain lasting friendships with as you trek around the country for your residency program.
We look forward to this very exciting day, and hope you will be part of it!
