Note for International Medical Graduates (IMGs)

Please be aware that recent legislation in Tennessee regarding the licensure of International Medical Graduates applies only to institutions with ACGME-accredited residency programs based in Tennessee. Since our residency programs are located in Virginia, we are unable to facilitate the pathways provided by this specific Tennessee legislation. IMGs interested in these new state-specific opportunities should focus their search on Tennessee-based academic institutions.
