Nearly 100 percent of seniors from the school matched with their program of choice last years, exceeding the national average, according to UT Health. “Twenty-two percent remained in Bexar County, augmenting this vital patient care workforce in our city,” states a news release. “Importantly for Texas, 57% of the students remained in the state and 43% entered primary care specialties.”
Students applied for virtual interviews with programs nationwide over the fall and winter. Each residency depends on the practice.
