Question 1. How does the Matching Program assist couples?
Under the previous system, couples who simultaneously applied for internship had an extremely difficult time in coordinating their choices on Call Day. For example, due to the strict rules which governed the process, one partner was often forced to accept or reject an offer without knowing the status of the other partner.
The Matching Program provides a much-needed solution to this dilemma by allowing couples to coordinate their internship preferences with each other. A couple may choose to submit a combined Rank Order List of paired internship sites. In this way, a couple can request to be matched with the same internship site or with internship sites within the same geographical area.
For more information about how the APPIC Match works for couples, see the matching program web site at: http://www.natmatch.com/psychint (click on "Rank Order Lists" and locate the link for couples).
