The schools on probation clearly state it next to their names, but if you look at the *s next to the evaluation dates, you will see schools that are having one area of their school reviewed.

Didn't Johns Hopkins lose their accredidation a few years back for a year? Something happened like that... maybe one of the hospitals lost their license or something. I dunno... it's sitting way back in my foggy memory.

you might be thinking about their internal med dept (i think), who got in trouble for violating the resident working hours.

What does probation for a school mean specifically--or rather, what does it mean to you if you attend a school on probation??

Thank you!

Thank you!

Precocious premeds start 25 threads a day, discussing the probation.

Seriously, unless the school's administration is totally incompetent, the probation means nothing to you

Joan C. Edwards School of Medicine is not on probation and in fact has had its accreditation continued until 2011. You can check out their story on the schools website..
