IMG Friendly (detail)
The residency program accepts only U.S. citizens or permanent U.S. residents and does not sponsor visas. Therefore, the program may not be IMG-friendly as it requires ECFMG certification for foreign-born graduates from non-LCME schools, indicating a lack of acceptance for IMG applicants.
