as far as I know there is only one kind of accreditation and that is by the American Medical Association. Schools can lose their accreditation if they fall below certain guidelines, but I don't think either of these schools would even come close to losing accreditation...here is NYU's accreditation page....http://www.nyu.edu/accreditation/ just look it up, easiest way to answer your own question...this is the board that accredits medical schools... http://www.lcme.org/

I think that this was true for Brown in the early 70's when the medical school was being rebuilt. They have had a normal accreditation for quite some time now.
I don't know about NYU.

The other accreditation is by the LCME and they are both accredited by it

LCME is the branch of AMA that does the accreditations..still all under one umbrella though
