SGU students and graduates matched into residences in 20 specialties across 41 states and the District of Columbia. More students will find out where they will be doing residency training in the days and weeks to come. SGU has been a preferred destination for aspiring medical professionals from South Korea, with 96 graduates contributing to the global healthcare workforce. Currently, 72 South Korean students are pursuing their medical education at SGU, further strengthening the university’s diverse and dynamic student community.
St. George’s University graduates will begin residency programs in several highly competitive specialties, ranging from neurology and surgery to emergency medicine and pediatrics. Many will be returning to their home states or cities to begin their careers in medicine.
“Matching into residency was a mix of emotions – excitement, relief, and the weight of stepping into a new chapter. It resulted from years of dedication, resilience, and countless hours of hard work. Looking back, the journey wasn’t easy, but it taught me the power of persistence. The Match process was intense, and trying to capture my experiences and aspirations in an application and interview was daunting. But I never felt alone. The unwavering support from my university, mentors, and peers gave me the confidence to push through, and that made all the difference,” said Julia Hweyryoung Cho, an SGU alumnus from the class of 2022.
“Each one of these matches marks the next step in a dream coming true, and we celebrate these students’ achievements, and their determination to make a real difference in the world as the next generation of new doctors,” said Dr. Loukas.
This new group of doctors will play a crucial role in addressing global physician shortages. SGU graduates have secured residencies in highly competitive specialties such as neurology, vascular surgery, diagnostic radiology, and more.
“We can’t wait to see all the great things that this newest class of SGU graduates will accomplish,” Dr. Loukas said.
