NOTE: Students seeking Ed.D. degrees were included in the Ph.D. category in order to prevent individuals from being identified.
*NOTE: Due to unusual circumstances, one applicant who matched in Phase I was released from the Match commitment by APPIC. The applicant was eligible to participate in Phase II and the vacated position was added into Phase II. When combining results, the applicant and position were considered to be not matched in Phase I.
