The literature is limited related to school of pharmacy (SOP) characteristics that may impact a student's residency match success. Given the paucity of information, the aim of our study was to examine the association between multiple school specific characteristics and Post-Graduate Year 1 (PGY1) residency match rate.
PGY1 residency match data and SOP specific characteristics were obtained. The median aggregate match rate was used to categorize programs as high or low match rate. Univariate and multivariate analyses were conducted to assess the impact of SOP characteristics on match rate.
Median match rates were 64% (2013), 63.25% (2014), and 64.25% (2015). Schools with >95% North American Pharmacist Licensure Examination (NAPLEX) pass rate and >15 funded faculty were more likely to have a high match rate. Private schools were less likely to have a high match rate when compared to public programs.
SOP characteristics associated with a high likelihood of a successful PGY1 residency match were greater than 95% of NAPLEX pass rate, more than 15 funded faculty members, and public school status.
关于药学院（SOP）的特征可能对学生住院医师匹配成功产生影响的文献有限。鉴于信息匮乏，我们研究的目的是检验多个学校特定特征与第一年住院医师培训（PGY1）匹配率之间的关联。
获取了PGY1住院医师匹配数据和SOP特定特征。使用匹配率中位数将项目分类为高匹配率或低匹配率。进行单变量和多变量分析以评估SOP特征对匹配率的影响。
匹配率中位数分别为2013年的64%、2014年的63.25%和2015年的64.25%。北美药剂师执照考试（NAPLEX）通过率>95%且有>15名受资助教员的学校更有可能有高匹配率。与公立项目相比，私立学校有高匹配率的可能性较小。
与PGY1住院医师匹配成功可能性高相关的SOP特征是NAPLEX通过率>95%、超过15名受资助教员以及公立学校身份。
