Pre Match Residency - Internal Medicine Program List

Pre-Match is a great way to secure a residency spot in advance.​​
What is Pre-Match?
Approximately 95% of matches are made on the primary NRMP match date. In rare cases, you may be able to pre-match with a program. In this case, the residency program provides you with a spot prior to the main match date.

This happens when a candidate wants to lock in their position and a residency program wants that candidate badly. This saves the candidate from having to gamble on the Match date; they can now relax.

Pre-match appears to be a more straightforward method of applying for medical residency. Candidates must still use the Electronic Resident Application Service to apply (ERAS). If the program likes you so much, they might just offer you a contract right after your interview! These will either be for preliminary or categorical positions.
