Genetic Counseling Admissions Match Information

The 黑料视频 University MS in Genetic Counseling program participates in the Genetic Counseling Admissions Match through (NMS).  The GC Admissions Match has been established to enhance the process of placing applicants into positions in Master's-level genetic counseling programs that are accredited by the Accreditation Council for Genetic Counseling (ACGC). The Match uses a process that takes into account both applicants’ and programs’ preferences.  All applicants must first register for the Match with NMS before applying to participating genetic counseling graduate programs. At the conclusion of all program interviews, both applicants and programs will submit ranked lists of preferred placements to NMS according to deadlines posted on the NMS website.  The binding results of the Match will be released to both applicants and programs simultaneously in late April.

Match Fee Waiver Details

The Association of Genetic Counseling Program Directors has established a waiver for the $100 fee associated with the NMS Match. Prospective students who demonstrate financial need AND have a cumulative GPA of 3.0 or greater can apply for a match fee waiver. Prospective students should apply for a fee waiver BEFORE registering for an NMS number.

Applications for the match fee waiver are due by October 5, 2022. Applicants will be notified on October 26, 2022, as to whether they have received a waiver. There are a limited number of waivers, so not all applicants will receive a waiver. Instructions for registering for the NMS match will be provided to those who receive a waiver. Waivers are non-transferable to future match cycles or other prospective students.
