Graduate Success

Since 1998, we have dedicated ourselves to ensuring our students are placed in medical residencies and continue to succeed in their medical careers. Our 96% residency placement rate over the last three years demonstrates the quality of the MUA education as well as the talents and work ethic of our students*.

  • Albert Einstein – New York (Neurology)
  • Case Western Reserve (Emergency Medicine)
  • Cleveland Clinic Health System (Surgery)
  • Duke University (Psychiatry)
