Adtalem Medical Schools Achieve Strong Residency Placements with more than 700 Physicians Entering U.S. Residency Programs

By: via Business Wire

AUC and RUSM achieve a combined 94.4% first-time eligibility residency attainment rate

Adtalem Global Education (NYSE: ATGE), a leading healthcare educator, today announced that more than 700 medical school graduates from American University of the Caribbean School of Medicine (AUC) and Ross University School of Medicine (RUSM) will begin residency training this summer in 44 U.S. states following initial results from the U.S. National Resident Matching Program®’s 2022 Main Residency Match (The MATCH℠).

Combined, AUC and RUSM combined achieved a 94.4% first-time eligible residency attainment rate as of March 29, 2022. AUC’s initial rate of 94.7% and RUSM’s of 94.2% are among the highest in Adtalem’s history and represents the fourth consecutive year at 90% or higher residency attainment. Of the combined 716 AUC and RUSM graduates that secured residencies, 74% will enter primary care specialties helping to combat the critical shortage of physicians, which is projected to reach approximately 139,000 by 2033.

“As our graduates continue their medical journey as physicians and take the next step in making an impact in the communities they serve, we are incredibly proud of the resilience and dedication they have demonstrated over the past several years,” said John Danaher, M.D., Adtalem president, medical and veterinary. “As the country and world face unprecedented public health imperatives, Adtalem remains committed to our education mission as we scale a distributed healthcare workforce and enhance the healthcare systems’ capacity to serve.”

Adtalem and its institutions are addressing healthcare workforce shortages and health inequities by expanding access to education at scale. According to recent data, AUC and RUSM combined graduate more physicians than any U.S. medical school on an annual basis and have more than 22,000 alumni. Additionally, both AUC and RUSM are committed to providing educational pathways for a diverse community of learners who may have been excluded from other opportunities and ultimately improve health equity as a result. More than 70% of all U.S. medical schools graduate 10 or less Black physicians per year, while Adtalem’s institutions graduate more Black physicians than any U.S. medical school. Of the AUC and RUSM graduates that matched this year, 93 identified as Black/African American and 163 identified as Black/African American or Hispanic.
