2017 APPIC Match Statistics
Combined Results: Phase I and Phase II
March 20, 2017
This report provides statistics and information about the combined results for both Phases of the 2017 APPIC Match.
NOTE: APPIC and NMS have made some changes to how information is presented in this report. For example, in previous years, programs and positions that submitted no ranks in Phase II were grouped with those that withdrew, whereas this year they are grouped with other available positions. These changes were made in order to better reflect the shifting imbalance between applicants and positions.
