Subject: Certified Applicant Match Week Schedule
This email provides important information about the schedule for
releasing NRMP Match information during Match Week, March 12-16, 2007. All
times are eastern daylight time.
All applicants will receive their Did I Match? information on the web
and by email at noon on Monday, March 12th, letting them know whether,
but not where, they matched. The Regional Match Statistics by Specialty
Report (which displays Match information organized by region and
specialty) also will be available at noon by clicking the My Reports tab. For
each specialty, the number of offered and unfilled positions is
displayed. Beginning at 1:00 p.m. on Match Day, Thursday, March 15th, matched
applicants will be able to access their Where Did I Match? information
on the web, letting them know to which program(s) they matched.
Applicants will be able to access their certified rank order lists throughout
Match Week.
The List of Unfilled Programs will be available to all unmatched
applicants on the web beginning at noon on Tuesday, March 13th. This year,
the List will not be sent by email to any Match applicants. To obtain the
List, applicants must log in to the Registration, Ranking, and Results
(R3) System with their AAMC ID number and password, and then click the
Unfilled Programs tab on the left menu bar. The List of Unfilled
Programs with links by specialty is dynamic. As positions are filled during
the "Scramble", programs can delete them from the unfilled list. This
feature helps reduce the number of telephone calls and faxes applicants
make to programs after all the positions have been filled. The list
will be updated on the web site every hour. Remember, the only role the
NRMP has in the "Scramble" is to provide this list. Applicants contact
programs directly if they are interested in the position. There is not a
second Match.
To promote ethical behavior, fully matched applicants will not be able
to access ANY information on unfilled programs/positions.
The Match Outcome for All Programs, which is available to all
participants, will be posted to the R3 System on March 19th, the Monday after
Match Week.
Under the Match Participation Agreement signed by all applicants, it is
a Match violation to begin contacting programs prior to noon on Tuesday
of Match Week, March 13th, when the "Scramble" begins. If the NRMP
receives evidence that an applicant has violated this rule, an
investigation will be initiated and sanctions may be applied as outlined in the
NRMP's Violations Policy, which can be found on the NRMP web site at
http://www.nrmp.org/res_match/policies/violations.html
Our best wishes for a successful Match!
