Despite an appeal, Dalhousie Universities under-graduate medical education program is being placed on probation. This term begins tomorrow, Oct.15th/2009 and many are asking, how does this affect the new medical school set to open on the campus of UNB Saint John next September? Officials tell us it doesn’t as they continue to get the curriculum set up for students who will begin their studies in 2010.
Officials also point out despite the probation…..the undergraduate medical program remains accredited and the ruling doesn’t affect any students ability to become a doctor.
