Ranking and Match Outcome Information. For the avoidance of doubt, a rank order list submitted by an applicant is confidential and the NRMP will not disclose or release applicant ranking information that is clearly and uniquely identifiable to any applicant, program, institution, or medical school except in response to a subpoena or an order from a court of competent jurisdiction. For each applicant who authorizes the NRMP to use applicant information for research purposes, the NRMP may provide such identifiable information only to reputable organizations engaged in undergraduate, graduate or postgraduate education solely for the purposes of performing joint research under strict, binding terms of a confidential data sharing agreement. At no time will the NRMP allow applicant ranking and/or match outcome information that is clearly and uniquely identifiable to be disclosed in publications, presentations, and reports resulting from such research.
