Western New England University (91Ö±²¥) College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences (COPHS) is proud to announce successful match rates for both PGY1 and PGY2.

Out of 16 students and graduates who participated in Phase 1 of the match process, 9 were matched to PGY1 programs and 5 were matched to PGY2 programs. This results in an impressive 81.8% match rate for PGY1 and a perfect 100% match rate for PGY2.

The Match Rate system is an important tool in the process of matching students and graduates to post-graduate year (PGY) programs in the field of pharmacy. It provides a standardized measure of the success of applicants in obtaining a position in a particular program.

The impressive 81.8% match rate for PGY1 and the perfect 100% match rate for PGY2 indicate that the college is preparing its students and graduates well for the competitive process of matching to post-graduate programs. Such results also demonstrate the quality of the college in providing a strong educational and professional foundation for its students and graduates.
