Graduate Medical Education

International Medical Graduates (IMGs)

Stanford Hospital and Clinics uses the J-1 visa program sponsored by the Educational Commission for Foreign Medical Graduates (ECFMG). Please see www.ecfmg.org for further information. Stanford does not sponsor H-1B visas for graduates of international medical schools. Graduates of Canadian medical schools must also use the J-1 program.

For IMG medical licensing information, please see our CA MD License page and/or visit www.medbd.ca.gov/.
