It was a sea of possibilities for MUSC medical students at the 2026 Match Day – the day that soon-to-be doctors found out where they matched for their residency programs. It was also a sea of opportunity, excitement and anxiety – all mixed together in just one single moment.
That moment happened at noon on March 20 when envelopes were torn open in a wave of nervousness and rising anticipation. These envelopes held answers that the medical students had long been waiting for. Did they match with the programs they hoped for? Would they have to move? How far away?
The reality set in for many of them. They would soon have “Dr.” written before their names.
As Match Day began, a crowd filled the Charleston Music Hall to capacity with the students, their families and friends, faculty members and support staff. A large screen featured a slide show of the College of Medicine’s Class of 2026. Nostalgia brought many students to tears as they faced the end of this momentous chapter of their lives.
The whole mission is to remind people about that connection between their health and eating healthy.
