I have a couple of friends who are attending medical school in the UK straight out of high school and I was just wondering if a medical degree from the UK is accepted in the US. Also is it possible to take a year or two of medicine in the UK and then transfer to the US for the remaining year or would you have to start over? Thanks for your help!

It totally depends on their accreditation and whether or not a university in the USA would have that specific UK university on their accreditation list. I know the University of Cincinnati in Ohio for example would definitely have to have that specific UK based university college listed on their accrediting list or they would refuse to transfer the credits. Indiana University East in Richmond, Indiana is the same way. I would check with the admissions department of both colleges to see if they would transfer if in fact they were not on each others list. Good luck.
