Can graduates of medical schools in Thailand train in the US?
The country has a WFME-recognized accreditor. Graduates of schools it accredits meet ECFMG's accreditation requirement for US residency.
- Institute for Medical Education Accreditation (IMEAc): recognized until 2028 October
A school must itself be accredited by that agency. Every country's status.
