College of Medicine welcomes LCME

The College of Medicine is pleased to welcome LCME Accreditation Survey Team to campus October 6-8, 2026.

The Liaison Committee on Medical Education (LCME) is the nationally recognized accrediting authority for medical education programs leading to the Doctor of Medicine (M.D.) degree in the United States and Canada. As the sole accreditor for these programs, the LCME ensures that medical schools meet rigorous educational standards essential for training competent physicians.

LCME accreditation is critical to our medical school because it validates the quality and integrity of our medical education program. This accreditation ensures our graduates are eligible to take the United States Medical Licensing Examination (USMLE) and qualify for residency training programs. Without LCME accreditation, our students would be unable to practice medicine in the United States.

The accreditation process demonstrates our commitment to continuous improvement in medical education, ensuring we maintain the highest standards in curriculum, faculty qualifications, educational resources, and student support services. This rigorous oversight protects our students’ investment in their medical education and maintains our school’s reputation within the medical community.

For prospective students and their families, LCME accreditation provides assurance that our program meets national standards and will prepare graduates for successful medical careers.
