I'm in need of some Hail Mary assistance with only 2 days left before rank lists are submitted. One program I applied to - Johns Hopkins Bayview, has a board pass rate of 76. This is the lowest pass rate of any of my programs and unfortunately, I just found this out. Stupidly I didn't notice it in time to ask the program about it on interview day. My concern is that I've heard on here that this can (though not always?) cause a program to lose accreditation. All I know is that loss of accreditation is bad.
I've checked on their accreditation status and as of now they aren't on probation, but I and my wife have zero understanding of the accreditation process. (We are couples matching) E.g. I am not sure if not they could still potentially lose their accreditation next year or during my tenure as a resident, were I to go there.
Tldr - can anyone explain accreditation to me? / If a program is not on probation when you apply to them, are you safe in the sense that they are unlikely to lose it while you're a resident there?
Edit- board pass rate is 77. Didn't want to mislead.
