College of Medicine receives continued accreditation

Following a two-year self-study and an intensive four-day site visit in February, the Liaison Committee on Medical Education has awarded the College of Medicine continued accreditation for a full eight-year term. The LCME is recognized by the U.S. Department of Education as the authority for the accreditation of medical education programs in the United States and Canada leading to the M.D. degree. The LCME report commends, among other things, the college’s admissions process, which includes patient interviews of potential students.
