UTHSC International Medical Graduate Requirements
You must pass USMLE Step 1, USMLE Step 2(CK), and USMLE Step 2(CS) on the first attempt. We do not require USMLE Step 3 for residency training, and it will not be considered when reviewing your application.
You must have a minimum score of 86 on both USMLE Step 1 and Step 2(CK). Scores cannot be combined for an average of 86.
You may submit your application without your Step 2(CS) score. However, you must have your score and a valid ECFMG certificate by January 30, 2010.
We offer a J1 Visa only. Please do not submit an application to our program if you require a H visa.
Graduation from Medical School should be within the last five (5) years. If not, you must have worked as a physician in a clinical setting for at least 2 years in the last 5 years.
