That's what I heard too.. best thing is for you to call the office and ask... if you are traveling far, there is no point in going to the iv

My boyfriend interviewed there, he said they were probably closing but if that were the case they assured them a position at another program. Veeeery few patients.

Hi hawaiii,

I did go there for the interview though I read in the local press about the hospital shutting down and the city thinking of building an olympic village at that site. When I asked about this to the chief resident and the faculty, they replied it could be a possibility but they are not sure of what exactly the future holds for them as in yet. That was in oct 07. They also told me that if I match there it is the obligation of the program to find me a placement if the program shuts down.

Have you heard of anyone who got a prematch offer from Michael Reese this year?? The NRMP quota says that it has 7 positions left but I haven`t seen anyone who prematched with Michael Reese...any inputs?

The NRMP quota you are looking at is from last year's match, not this year's...

They are not offering prematch this year, at least that's what they tell you in the closing interview

I interviewed there in December. They are NOT giving prematches. They just sent me an email stating that they are withdrawing fro the NRMP matching process. I guess they are really shutting down then.....sad
