Question:

Can you give me advance standing in your program based on my credentials as a physician?

Answer:
While we certainly acknowledge all graduate-level degrees, we cannot offer advanced standing to applicants, even for physicians. This is for many reasons, but primarily because medicine changes so rapidly; we need to insure that all graduates have received the most up-to-date training. This guarantees that our graduates have the highest possible chance of passing the certifying exam and, more importantly, of fully protecting patients.
