The Scope E-Newsletter April 2009

Senior medical students learned they matched with the UT Graduate School of Medicine for residency during a nationwide Match Day March 19. Although students can learn their match results online, many participate in a Match Day celebration, opening letters at 1 p.m. with their peers to see where they will go for residencies.
