Actually, no you didn't win. There is now a proposal in front of the LCME in terms of for profit schools:
Proposed Deletion of Accreditation Standard IS-2
The LCME recommends that the following accreditation standard be deleted: IS-2. The parent institution of a medical education program should have not-for-profit status.
Background and Rationale
The LCME recommendation follows from the premise that accreditation decisions must be based on the ability of an institution to meet accreditation standards and not on its form of governance.
Written comments may be e-mailed to
