LCME Medical Education Database

Prior to a full LCME accreditation survey, medical schools must conduct an institutional self-study. As part of the self-study process, schools complete the Medical Education Database, comprised of six sections of questions covering all aspects of the program leading to the M.D. degree. The Database files are provided below, in Microsoft Word 2000 for Windows format. Care should be taken to access the files that correspond to the date of the school's site survey, since Database files undergo annual updates.
