*The 3-year first-time residency attainment rate is the weighted average of the 2022-23, through 2024-25 academic years. For each year, the rate is the percent of students attaining a residency out of all graduates or expected graduates in the year who were active applicants in the NRMP match in that year or who attained a residency outside the NRMP match in that year. The 1-year first-time residency attainment rate is 95% for 2024-2025 graduates.

USMLE Step 2
From Rotations to Residency
Upon successful completion of core rotations (including NBME Clinical Subject Examination for each core clerkship and the NBME Clinical Comprehensive Examination) students are eligible to take the USMLE® Step 2 CK. Students must pass both exams to graduate. Passing Step 2 CK is also a condition for ECFMG certification, which is the process that international medical graduates must follow to participate in the National Resident Matching Program for postgraduate training. They participate in the same residency match programs as U.S. medical students.
