This changelog records our verification activity — not official agency announcements. For the authoritative current status of any school, always open the agency's own list. See methodology.

  • Registry

    Registry coverage confirmed at 41 schools (up from the earlier 27-school baseline); status feeds and SEO hub structure updated.

    Entity set now includes the 14 schools added after the 2026-11-02 pass (e.g. Spartan, Aureus, Caribbean Medical University, IUHS, St. Martinus, Richmond Gabriel, AU Anguilla, AU St. Vincent, Anton de Kom, and Dominican Republic / Puerto Rico faculties). Changelog and status feeds corrected to say 41 schools. Hub H2s, legacy .org redirects, and a USMLE pass-rates guide published the same day.

  • Registry

    Full registry re-verification pass — school records updated to lastVerified 2026-11-02 (then 27 schools; later expanded to 41).

    Cross-checked school records against CAAM-HP, ACCM, NVAO, and GMDC primary lists. No accreditation decisions changed in this pass. lastVerified field bumped for schools in the then-current set. Subsequent expansion brought the registry to 41 schools — see 2026-11-04 entry.

  • SGU GMDC status confirmed through 2030; CAAM-HP voluntarily withdrawn (January 2021) confirmed.

    Re-checked SGU accreditation page and CAAM-HP assessed-programs list. GMDC re-accreditation through 2030 stands; CAAM-HP listing remains voluntarily withdrawn. No change to data.

  • CAAM-HP 'Accredited with Conditions' confirmed; upcoming site visit flagged for Sep 2026.

    CAAM-HP assessed-programs list re-checked 2026-11-02: Accredited with Conditions until the next site visit. Prior Sep 2026 visit timing note retired — confirm live CAAM-HP table for visit dates.

  • ACCM accreditation through December 31, 2027 confirmed.

    Re-checked ACCM assessed-programmes page. AUC listed as accredited for six years to Dec 31, 2027 since 1995. No change.

  • NVAO status set to 'unknown'; statusLabel: 'Positive peer review; formal NVAO renewal pending'. Formal NVAO renewal besluit not yet published.

    NVAO 2018 besluit valid through 2024-10-30; cluster peer review (visit Nov 2025; panel report 2026-01-27) positive on all standards; school states ongoing NVAO accreditation. Formal renewal besluit has not been published on nvao.net as of this check — status set to unknown with custom statusLabel to avoid claiming plain 'Accredited'. Confirm final besluit on nvao.net when available. Saba is NOT ACCM.

  • Data

    Generated from school JSON at build time. Available at /data/accreditation-registry.json and /data/accreditation-registry.csv. Linked from /accreditation.
