Release of Certified Transcripts

Candidates who have completed COMLEX-USA examinations after 1990 may request a certified (official) transcript by logging into the Portal, using the “Purchase Transcripts” tab, and completing the electronic request form and payment.

Candidates who completed COMLEX-USA examinations (or its predecessors) before 1990 may either download, complete, and email a paper form or utilize the electronic version noted above, paying the required fee of $65. No requests for transcripts will be taken by telephone or fax.

COMLEX-USA transcripts contain scores and/or pass/fail status for all COMLEX-USA examinations taken and score interpretation annotations/notes. (Note: Results for COMLEX-USA Level 1 examinations taken after May 5, 2022 are only reported as “Pass” or “Fail”). A candidate’s certified transcript is the only verification of scores the NBOME considers acceptable by Medical Licensing Agencies and the Federation Credentials Verification Service (FCVS).

The normal processing time for a certified transcript is within two (2) business days following receipt of request and payment.

All certified transcripts are sent electronically to either FCVS or to participating state medical boards directly, or if specifically requested by a candidate can be mailed by first-class mail or express mail for an additional fee.
