A Medical Residents Guide to Finding Your Perfect Housing Match after Match Day

For medical students, Match Day is a major celebration – it is the day when they find out where they will be training for their residencies and in what field of specialty.  

This matching is the culmination of a student’s hard work in undergrad and medical school and begins the next chapter – including a new home. To ensure that Match Day is all celebration, let AVE handle the logistics for you. Whether you get placed in Philadelphia or Texas, we are here to take care of all your housing needs. 

What To Look for in Your Future Apartment

Apartments with On-Demand Amenities to Rent 

At AVE, we understand that due to medical students’ shift work schedules, residents may need to access our amenity spaces at different times. At The Franklin Residences, our business center, equipped with high-speed WiFi, is open from 7 am – 11 pm, and our fitness center is 24/7. At AVE Phoenix, AVE Tampa Riverwalk and AVE Las Colinas, all the amenities aside from the pools are 24/7, so you can study or stretch at any time you like.  

To be courteous to our medical students who are hard at work studying and all residents, our AVE communities also have community quiet hours mainly from 10 pm – 7 am. 

Find A Sense of Community in Your New Apartment 

For our residents who are looking to create a new social circle upon moving to their new home, AVE is the perfect community for you.
