A Penn State Nittany Lion statue is seen in the courtyard of Penn State College of Medicine in Summer 2016. The statue is in focus toward the right side of the image. Out of focus in the background, green plants and trees are visible in the courtyard.

Career Advising

The “Preparing for Residency” page has been designed to walk fourth year medical students through the process of researching residency programs, applying to the programs, working with the National Resident Matching Program (NRMP), San Francisco Match (SFMatch), and the Military Match.

Career advising resources for medical students can be found in the Year 1 Events and Resources, Phase II Event and Resources, and Phase III Events and Resources canvas courses for each class.

All questions regarding preparing for your residency should be directed to Office of Student Affairs, studentaffairs@pennstatehealth.psu.edu.
