So, one of the programs I interviewed at is having ACGME site visit in early February. Does anyone here have an idea about how much time usually it takes after the site visit for ACGME to announce the decision to extend the accredition of the program or put it on probation? I would like to know it for sure before ROL is due!! 🙄

Not sure about that one, but one thing to look at is the cycle program length. Simply, this is the approval period that comes out of the ACGME review. So, if they have a minimal problems, their PCL may be 10 years. The longer, the better. If if is a new program, of course, this won't help.

It takes months. There is no way they will know before the ROL is due.
