Can graduates of medical schools in the Czech Republic train in the US?
The country has a WFME-recognized accreditor. Graduates of schools it accredits meet ECFMG's accreditation requirement for US residency.
- National Accreditation Bureau for Higher Education (NAB): recognized until 2035 January
A school must itself be accredited by that agency. Every country's status.
