UTRGV SCHOOL OF MEDICINE MATCH DAY 2024

This year marks the fifth Match Day for UTRGV’s academic medical institution, where they’ve celebrated nearly 200 successful matches since 2015. Out of the 52 students in the School of Medicine’s Class of 2025, 31 will stay in Texas for their residencies, with four of them choosing to remain right here in the Rio Grande Valley.

“Today is a big deal,” said Dr. Michael B. Hocker, senior vice president for UT Health RGV and dean of the UTRGV School of Medicine. “Today is a day unlike any other in the life of a medical student; today means a step closer to becoming a physician.”
