Residency Fair Introduces Seniors to Dozens of Programs

Days before NYCPM welcomed the Class of 2019, the College hosted its annual Residency Fair, at which members of the Class of 2016 have a chance to learn about the programs they might want to join; at the Fair, the programs were often represented by NYCPM graduates. According to Dean of Student Services and Enrollment Management Lisa Lee, “it was great to hear how much our current students are viewed as strong candidates and in demand.” More than 50 programs in hospitals and medical centers were represented. Congratulations to the students who served as Residency Fair coordinators: Abigail Dunklee, Alisha Poonja and Yu Ting Saw, all Class of 2017. The Fair’s sponsors were Valeant, Bako, Lenox Hill Radiology, Mega Air and the NYCPM Alumni Relations Association. Following the Fair was an alumni reception that welcomed our graduates back and allowed them to socialize and catch up with faculty and friends. A good time was had by all!

At the Residency Fair were, left to right: Joshua Lisonbee (2017), Olga Chagin (2017), and Adam Falivene (2015)
