June 8, 2026 | Elizabeth Wingfield
The University of Texas at Tyler Ben and Maytee Fisch College of Pharmacy Class of 2026 achieved a 100% residency match rate. Pharmacy residency programs provide rigorous, post-graduate clinical training designed to develop expert practitioners. Completing a residency is often a prerequisite for specialized roles in hospital systems, healthcare leadership and academia, as well as high-stakes fields like oncology, infectious diseases and critical care.
鈥淲e are tremendously proud of our Class of 2026 for achieving a 100% residency match rate,鈥� said Dr. Pamella Ochoa, Fisch College of Pharmacy dean. 鈥淪ecuring a residency is an important milestone for graduates pursuing advanced training in direct patient care and clinical research. This achievement reflects the preparation and commitment of our students, as well as the dedication of the faculty and preceptors who support their success.鈥�
To remain competitive on a national level, students must demonstrate exceptional academic standing and undergo an intensive interview process. These evaluations often span several hours and require students to present complex clinical case studies and formal research to panels of experienced healthcare providers.
鈥淭he professors at the Ben and Maytee Fisch College of Pharmacy were highly supportive
and
played a major role in preparing me for residency through strong clinical training,
mentorship and guidance,鈥� said SaMoan Brown, a graduate of the cohort. 鈥淒riven by
determination and a commitment to pursuing residency since my first year in pharmacy
school, I took an intentional approach to developing the experiences and skills needed
to prepare for this path. I am grateful for the support and opportunities the school
provided and look forward to continuing my growth as a pharmacist through residency
training.鈥�
