Friday, March 18th, was match day for our newest class of incoming residents in the categorical, preliminary and primary care tracks of the Internal Medicine Residency Program. In keeping with previous matches, the new group excels academically, and comes from diverse regions across the eastern half of the U.S. This year’s match is 43% female and 57% male, and includes two persons with PhDs. You will see some familiar faces, since five categorical interns and three preliminary interns are from UVA. Below is a photo with their names and photos; we look forward to welcoming them in person this coming June.
The schools represented in our match of all 37 residents (categorical, preliminary, PC) include:
- University of Virginia (8)
- East Carolina State University
- Eastern Virginia University
- George Washington University
- Howard University
- Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai
- Indiana University
- Louisiana State University (2)
- Marshall University (2)
- Medical University of South Carolina (2)
- Penn State University (3)
- SUNY Buffalo
Our thanks to the members of the intern selection committee, who screened over 1,600 ERAS files; the many department faculty and fellows who interviewed candidates; the graduate medical education administrative team, who made sure that the overall process leading up to and during each of the 21 interview days ran smoothly; the residents who, as always, are the most important part of advertising the Department and the residency program; and finally and especially, to the chief residents who worked tirelessly throughout interviews season to help produce a great match for all of us.
