We would like to inform IMGs that recent legislation in Tennessee regarding licensure applies only to institutions with ACGME-accredited residency programs located in Tennessee. Since our residency programs are based in Virginia, we are unable to assist with the pathways established by this specific Tennessee law. IMGs interested in these new state-specific opportunities should consider focusing their search on academic institutions based in Tennessee.
