We require an USMLE/COMLEX transcript be submitted as part of your application to be considered for interview selection. We have no preference between USMLE or COMLEX and will utilize the higher of the two scores when presented both. See below for more specific information on each step/level:
Our program considers examination scores in conjunction with other criteria such as course grades and faculty evaluations, rather than using test scores as the sole basis for interview decisions. Test scores are viewed as approximate rather than exact measures of medical knowledge, and therefore, the range noted above is presented as a ballpark for eligibility.
For our PGY1 class, we prefer candidates currently in their fourth year of medical school or within 36-months of graduation.
If you are interested in an elective rotation in your third or fourth year of medical school, email us at GMEoffice@tennova.com.
Yes, we require all applicants to have some US clinical experience present on their application.
Our program provides J1 visa sponsorship only at this time.
At this time, we are not planning any additional residency programs. However, we fully expect to branch out into fellowships, with cardiology planned as the first program.
