PSYCHIATRY · APPLICATION CYCLE 2026–2027

Track your Psychiatry residency applications — every program, signal, and interview.

Psychiatry has been one of the fastest-expanding specialties in the Match: NRMP counted 2,516 positions offered in the 2026 cycle, with a 97.4% fill rate. CycleDoc's directory reflects a slice of that growth directly — 361 programs across 50 states, all running the standard four-year categorical structure on the usual ERAS-to-NRMP timeline. Ten signals, no gold tier, per AAMC — flat and comparatively generous next to some surgical specialties.

Built by a former residency director of medical education and core faculty member who read thousands of applications.

PSYCHIATRY SPECIFIC

Psychiatry keeps adding positions nationally. Does that mean it's easier to match?

More positions doesn't automatically mean better odds — applicant volume has grown alongside program growth. NRMP reported 2,516 positions and a 97.4% fill rate for 2026, which is a fact about the field, not a prediction about any individual applicant. CycleDoc doesn't estimate your odds; it keeps your own list and deadlines organized.

Where does program data come from?
