Medical schools do not "find" residencies for anyone. After you graduate with your MD, you are finished with "medical school". Residencies are all post graduate (after your MD) training, and as such, are usually seperate from the MD program itself. Since many residencies are affiliated with medical schools, however, you will read about University of Iowa Internal Medicine, or University of Virginia orthopedics or whatever.

The medical schools (like SABA) are only involved with the basic science and clinical work required to get the MD itself. The medical school itself is only important in that a substandard school produces substandard MDs, which are not welcomed in the resdidency programs.

Having said all of that, graduates of SABA do very well obtaining residencies, and are considered well trained and competative for the residency match!

The following website shows which residencies Saba graduates placed ("matched") into in 2005 (it should answer your question):
