Match Day is one of the most anticipated milestones in a medical student’s journey. Each year in March, graduating students across the country learn where they will complete their residency training. At precisely the same time, thousands of envelopes are opened to reveal the next step in their medical careers—marking the culmination of years of hard work, dedication, and a little bit of nerves and excitement. It’s a celebration of achievement, opportunity, and the future of medicine.
Match Day 2026
We are excited for Match Day on Friday, March 20, when RVUCOM students reveal where they will complete their residency training.
This milestone celebrates years of dedication, academic achievement, and clinical training to become future physicians serving communities nationwide.
