Hi, any body having any idea about Army or Military residency programs.
The U.S. military allows US IMGs to practice medicine in the U.S. military as soon as they have a license to practice medicine in the U.S.
In fact, ECFMG folks can do military residencies. But they must do so after a U.S. internship in which they pass the USMLE Step 3 and can then get their full medical license.
You can apply for military residency spots, but there are more graduates of the military medical school than spots Plus US med students applying for them as well. If you want to serve in the Military as an IMG/FMG you need to do a residency in the states first and THEN when you are an attending apply for the military.
Good Luck!

Here is the website for u: www.militarygme.org
Visit this website and there u will get separate links for Army,Air Force and Navy GME websites.
If some programs on Freida say 'no' then they will not be accepting applications for the respective session.
Good Luck!

That means that the said program does not accept applications only for that session,but may accept applications after that particular session is over.
Even if u have been rejected by a program u can still apply to that program during Scramble.If the program has an unfilled positions then everyone has a chance there.
Thanks for the appreciation!
Good Luck!
