Final Medical Diploma

ECFMG requires all medical school graduates to submit two copies of their final medical diploma. For the exact name of the final medical diploma you must supply, refer to the country of your medical school below. See Final Medical Diploma for complete information, including the items that you must submit with the copies of your diploma.
Final Medical School Transcript

When ECFMG sends your medical diploma to your medical school for verification, ECFMG will request the medical school to include your final medical school transcript when the school returns the verification of your medical diploma to ECFMG. If ECFMG is unable to obtain your final medical school transcript directly from your medical school, ECFMG will contact you and request that you submit to ECFMG two copies of your final medical school transcript. ECFMG will then send a copy of the final medical school transcript to the medical school for verification. See Final Medical School Transcript.
