What You Need to Know
The Hackensack Meridian School of Medicine has been granted full accreditation by the Middle States Commission on Higher Education (MSCHE). This milestone brings the school closer to full accreditation from all regulatory agencies. The next milestone for the School is final accreditation from the Liaison Committee on Medical Education (LCME), the major national regulatory body. The School received provisional accreditation from the LCME in February 2021.
Aside from the MSCHE and LCME, the School has received its license from the New Jersey Office of the Secretary of Higher Education (OSHE), and is eligible for, and participates in, the management of Title IV funds through the U.S. Department of Education. The New Jersey Board of Medical Examiners’ provisional approval will convert to full approval upon the LCME’s confirmation of full accreditation.
