Dr. Lawrence Chin, dean of the Alan and Marlene Norton College of Medicine, noted that many people and groups share in each student’s success.

“I know what it means to have support from family, who have supported you with all their efforts and financial resources and I thank you for being part of the students’ success today.” Chin said.

Match Day was established in 1952 by the National Resident Matching Program (NRMP) of the Association of American Medical Colleges established Match Day in 1952. It’s an “orderly and fair way” to match the preferences of applicants for U.S. residency positions with the residency program’s choice of applicants.

Upstate Medical University describes it as an “annual rite of passage.”

The matching program provides a common time for the announcement of the appointments, as well as an agreement for programs and applicants to honor the commitment to offer and accept an appointment.
