***********, Executive Director P.O. Box 18256 Oklahoma City, OK 73118 (405) 848-6841 / Fax  405) 848-8240(800) 381-4519 www.okmedicalboard.org Oklahoma Subject: Licensure enquiry Date: Fri, 26 Aug 2005 10:29:44 -0500 From: **********<rhall@okmedicalboard.org> To: *********** Top of Form Bottom of Form I have checked our records and St. Martinus University is not on the list of medical schools that the Board has previously considered. The Board considers each application individually. Since the Board has not previously considered an application from that school, they would need considerable information from the school regarding the education. *********** Director of Licensing Subject: FW: rhall@okmedicalboard.org - Licensure enquiry Date: Fri, 26 Aug 2005 12:12:57 -0500 From: "Network Administrator" <zroot@okmedicalboard.org> To: ********** -----Original Message----- From: ******** Sent: Friday, August 26, 2005 9:56 AM To: Network Administrator Subject: RE: rhall@okmedicalboard.org - Licensure enquiry Dear ********: I will answer your questions with the proviso that all applicants are reviewed on an individual basis so there is no guarantee of licensure in Oklahoma. Is St. Martinus University ACCREDIATED BY OK MEDICAL BOARD? 1. No. The Oklahoma Medical Board does not accreditation and medical school. The board uses a standard of equivalency based on a similar education at the Oklahoma University School of Medicine. Due to the lack of any formal recognized accreditation process for foreign medical schools, the attendee takes a significant risk in that the specific school in question may not be equivalent or even well known. Can graduates of St. Martinus University apply for Licensure in OK? 2. Any graduate may apply for a license in Oklahoma...obtaining a medical license is based on the quality of all the information. (I am not trying to be coy, but there is no assurance of licensure) 3) Can graduates of St. Martinus University apply for residency in OK? 4) Can students of St. Martinus University complete their clinical core rotations in OK? 5) Can students of St. Martinus University eligible to apply for electives in OK? 3, 4 & 5 need to be answered by someone else as we do not determine the acceptance into a residency program... only the training license in order to start residency. I suggest you talk with Dr. ******* - john-zubialde@ouhsc.edu as he will be able to answer your questions or know who can. Sincerely, *********** Executive Director Oklahoma State Board of Medical Licensure and Supervision 5104 North ******* Avenue Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 73118 405-848-6841 Office 405-848-4999 Fax 405-767-1414 Direct lkelsey@okmedicalboard.org

Each applicant for licensure is considered on their own in regard to whether or not their particular medical education meets board rules and Texas law. There is however a list of Medical Schools that do not have to prove substantial equivalence. This list is subject to change and TSBME may still require graduates of schools on this list to provide additional information about their medical education. This list is available at: http://www.tsbme.state.tx.us/professionals/docinfo/doclic.htm Question 3: Can graduates of St. Martinus University apply for residency in TEXAS? Substantial equivalence is not a requirement for obtaining a physician in training permit. You will need to contact the residency programs you are interested in to determine their eligibility requirements. 4) Can students of St. Martinus University complete their clinical core rotations in TEXAS ? 5) Can students of St. Martinus University eligible to apply for electives in TEXAS ? Questions 4-5: In regard to your question concerning required clinical rotations, the board's rules require that you must complete the following clinical rotations - Internal Medicine Surgery Pediatrics OB/GYN Psychiatry Family Practice The board's rules do not specifically lay out the number of weeks for each clinical rotation, however, your total medical education must be at least 130 weeks in length. All clinical rotations (required and elective) during the 130 weeks required, that are performed in the United States must be performed in hospitals that have an ACGME or AOA approved residency in the same subject area. Should you choose to perform clinical rotations in Texas, you must be enrolled in a Texas medical school as a visiting student. http://www.tsbme.state.tx.us/professionals/docinfo/doclic.htm Sincerely, Customer Information Center Texas State Board of Medical Examiners (512) 305-7030 verifcic@tsbme.state.tx.us http://www.tsbme.state.tx.us
