Accredited by ACCM
The United States Department of Education, through the National Committee on Foreign Medical Education and Accreditation (NCFMEA), reviews how countries accredit their medical schools. The NCFMEA has confirmed that the ACCM’s accreditation standards match those of the Liaison Committee on Medical Education (LCME), which accredits U.S. medical schools. This means that AUC’s accreditation standards are comparable to those of U.S. medical schools.
