Hi team. I read that the final accreditation decision for California Northstate University will be decided when the LCME team reconvenes in June 2025 (link). Does anyone have any updates on this? I am finalizing my school list after speaking with many students, some of whom attend CNU, and I have decided to apply to CNU if it is fully accredited.
 
Appreciate you. I also just got a message from a friend with a screenshot of the LCME email. Could you update us if the school announces the decision sooner?
 
+1 IS. question: is there any point in submitting here if I don't have "2 letters from a Science professor teaching the BCPM course or a committee packet (2 letters from this category or a committee packet is Required)." or would it be a waste of money?

Read this: Admissions Requirements

If you don't meet the requirements which are clearly identified, don't waste your money. Don't be the applicant who can't follow basic instructions.
 
5. (Required) If your education has not been continuous since high school, please explain why. Examples of discontinuities include time taken off while obtaining your undergraduate degree, in addition to gap years. (250 words maximum)

Do gap years after college count for this question? Or do they just want to know about gap years after high school?

They absolutely count. It is referencing any gap in your education. In my case, I am a non-traditional applicant that entered healthcare administration immediately after undergrad and am now returning to medicine, so I am writing about that.
