NRMP BOARD REVISES MATCH POLICIES
At its May 2009 Meeting, the NRMP Board of Directors revised the
policies that govern participation in the Matching Program. For

NRMP TO IMPLEMENT MANAGED SCRAMBLE
The NRMP Board of Directors, meeting in Washington, DC on May 4, 2009, voted
to proceed with implementation of a "managed" Scramble for the Main Residency
Match. A joint NRMP-AAMC work group will continue to refine the plan, which
will require programs to offer and applicants to accept unfilled positions through
the NRMP R3 System during Match Week. A "managed" Scramble would be implemented
no earlier than the 2011 Match, according to NRMP Executive Director Mona M.
Signer. Questions about the process may be directed to Ms. Signer at msigner@aamc.org.
In other business, the Board increased fees for all matches opening after June
30, 2009. The applicant registration fee will increase from $40 to $50; the
institution registration fee will increase from $100 to $175; and the program
registration fee and the fee charged per applicant matched to the program will
increase from $20 to $30. "These modest increases were approved to balance our
operating budget through 2011," said NRMP President Richard A. Pierson.
