Transcripts and Diplomas

Diplomas and transcripts must be official documents when submitted to the Acupuncture Board. The Board can accept transcripts directly from each school where coursework was taken. Official unopened transcripts can be accepted from the applicant.

All foreign trained applicants shall submit documentation of his or her education to a credentials evaluation service that is a member of the National Association of Credentials Evaluation Services (NACES), for a course-by-course evaluation to be sent to the Board. A copy of the original transcript is also required and can be provided by the evaluation company.
