If you trained outside the US

We read this program's admissions pages and they take no position on international applicants. That is not a yes and not a no — ask the program before you spend anything.

“Score from the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) for a student whose native language is not English; a minimum score of 100 (iBT test) is required. Critical care experience must be obtained in a critical care area within the United States, its territories, or a US military hospital outside of the United States.”
