ERAS Support Services for Applicants

USMLE Transcript

The USMLE transcript contains your entire USMLE history on Step 1, Step 2 Clinical Knowledge (CK), Step 2 Clinical Skills (CS), and, if taken, Step 3. It includes all attempts: passed, failed, incomplete, etc. For complete information on what is included in the USMLE transcript, refer to Official USMLE Transcripts and Providing Scores to Third Parties in the USMLE Bulletin of Information, available on the USMLE website.

The USMLE transcript is not transmitted automatically. You need to request its transmission, pay the one-time $70 processing fee, and assign it to your programs.

If you are applying to non-ERAS participating programs and require a USMLE transcript, request a paper transcript from ECFMG.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Your USMLE transcript request will not be processed until you have applied to at least one program. Once you have applied to programs, it can take one to two business days for your USMLE transcript to be transmitted to the ERAS PostOffice, where it can be accessed by programs.

You can request the release of your USMLE transcript from the Documents tab of MyERAS. Please read the instructions carefully. You need to answer two questions. The first asks you to release your USMLE transcript. The second asks whether you want an updated USMLE transcript sent automatically, should information change. After reading the instructions carefully, choose either “Yes” or “No.” If you choose “No” to the second question and decide not to have it retransmitted automatically, you need to retransmit it yourself at MyERAS after you have obtained your scores.

IMPORTANT NOTE: USMLE scores may only be reported in an official USMLE transcript. ECFMG is not authorized to include USMLE scores in the ECFMG Status Report. The only method to transmit your USMLE scores is by requesting the USMLE transcript.
