Program Code of Conduct and Match Tips for Applicants
The NRMP has partnered with the Council of Medical Specialty Societies
(CMSS) Organization of Program Director Associations to create a
residency program Code of Conduct for the Match and Match
Tips for Applicants. The Code is intended to serve as
a guide for residency program staff involved in the interviewing
and matching processes by highlighting behaviors that ensure a fair
and equitable Match experience for applicants.
Match Tips identifies steps applicants should take and avoid
during the Match season to promote success in the Match. Read the
Code and Match
Tips to learn how to promote high ethical standards during
Match season.
"ALL-IN" POLICY FOR THE RESIDENCY MATCH
At its May 2011 meeting, the NRMP Board of Directors voted unanimously
to require programs participating in the Main Residency Match
to place all positions in The Match. The "All-In" Policy
became effective for the 2013 Match, and it applies to all PGY-1
and PGY-2 positions for which the NRMP provides Matching services.
Read about the Policy and
how it has been implemented by the NRMP.
MATCH FEES
During its October 29th meeting, the NRMP Board of Directors approved
new fees for all Matches opening after June 30, 2013. The institution
registration fee will increase from $175 to $200 for each Match
in which the institution's programs participate, and the per program
and per matched applicant fees will increase from $30 to $35. The
applicant registration fee will rise from $50 to $60 for the first
20 programs on the rank order list.
"We think these new fees compare favorably to fees for other
similar services," said NRMP Executive Director Mona M. Signer.
"The San Francisco Matching Program charges applicants a $100
registration fee and $60 for the first 10 applications sent by its
application service. The AAMC's Electronic Residency Application
Service (ERAS) charges $92 for the first ten residency applications
and $105 for the first ten fellowship applications."
