US-IMG in EU wanting to transfer back to USA

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Requisite for transfer (generally speaking) is a parallel curriculum. One of the reasons that transfers have become so uncommon (even between US MD schools) is that curricula vary so much now. There was a time (decades ago) when someone with a compelling reason for transfer who had successfully completed two years with a strong USMLE score and a letter of support from their dean had a fighting chance at transfer. Even then, it was rare and almost always between LCME accredited schools.
