Prospective trainees applying for admission and who have completed coursework outside the United States at a non-American institution must have their foreign transcript go through a process called “Credential Evaluation”.  This Credential Evaluation is completed by organizations accredited by the National Association of Credential Evaluation Services (NACES).

The evaluation will determine if the applicant’s foreign degree is equivalent to the degree that the program requires.  The evaluation must list the degree equivalency and include a GPA (grade point average) calculation as well as a course-by-course credit evaluation.

All applicants meeting program requirements will be scheduled for a formal required interview with the Admissions Committee.
