Distribution
Email: Match result notification emails will be sent in the morning of March 27, 2026 with the intention of having all emails sent by 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time. Results will be sent by email to applicants that participated in the MedPhys Match (i.e., certified a Rank Order List and did not withdraw). Due to unreliable email exchanges and inbound servers, we cannot guarantee a delivery time for the emails.
Web: Match result information will be available online in the NMS Match System beginning at 12:00 p.m. noon Eastern Time on March 27, 2026.
The same result information will be provided by email and online. Any applicant who does not receive their result by email should access their result online.
Post-Match Process
Applicants who are not matched may only begin seeking and filling available positions after 12:00 p.m. noon Eastern Time on March 27, 2026. At that time, a List of Programs with Available Positions will be provided in the NMS Match System. The List can be updated by programs at any time, so applicants are encouraged to check the list regularly.
Unmatched applicants may send applications to programs with available positions through the NMS Match System, and new applicants may also register after this time to participate in the Post-Match Process.
Programs have access to contact information for applicants who submitted applications or ranks but were not matched, or who withdrew but indicated they were interested in seeking a position in the Post-Match Process. They may invite applicants to submit additional application materials, complete program-specific forms, or attend interviews.
There is no further matching conducted during the Post-Match Process. Applicants and programs communicate directly and make independent arrangements to fill available positions.
The NMS Match System will close on May 31, 2026. Applicants will not be able to access any information in the NMS Match System after that date.
