California Northstate University College of Medicine (CNUCOM) is a private for-profit medical school located in Elk Grove, California and is one of the four colleges of California Northstate University, granting the degree of Doctor of Medicine (MD).[1] Although the proposed California Northstate University hospital will operate on a not-for-profit basis, CNUCOM will remain a for-profit educational institution.[2][3] The college of medicine was approved by the WASC in August 2013 [4] and gained preliminary accreditation in June 2015 and provisional accreditation in June 2019 by the Liaison Committee on Medical Education (LCME).[5] In January 2022, the LCME denied CNUCOM full accreditation status; the school will remain provisionally accredited until further evaluation.[6] California Northstate currently lacks authorization through the Higher Education Act title IV, Student Assistance section[7] or Title 38 of the Veterans Benefit Program. This impacts access to Federal Student Loans, any Federal Student Funding, access to refinancing, and limits to currently 3 lenders.[7][8]

Dr. Joseph Silva, MD, currently serves as the Dean of Medicine. CNUCOM enrolled its first class of 60 students in August 2015, which subsequently graduated in May 2019.

History

California Northstate University (CNU) COM is a new institution established following the College of Pharmacy in 2008.[9] CNUCOM enrolled its first class of 60 students in August 2015,[10] and its second class of 90 students in August 2016.[11] CNUCOM is dedicated to educating, developing, and training physicians to help with the primary care physician shortage in Northern California.[12] CNU has a College of Health Sciences for undergraduates with a combined BS/MD program[13] as well as a pre-med post-Baccalaureate program.[14]

Hospitals

California Northstate University College of Medicine is affiliated with Kaiser Permanente of Northern California and Sutter Health Hospitals. Clinical clerkships are located at multiple sites in Northern California, including but not limited to Kaiser Permanente, Dignity Health, and Sutter Health hospitals. In addition, some students are required to do rotations in Bakersfield and Los Angeles at Good Samaritan Hospital and AHMC, respectively.

On Dec 20, 2018, the California Northstate University Medical Center was announced. It was expected to open in 2022, in Elk Grove, with 250 beds and a level 2 trauma center in the ER. This $750 million project is expected to generate 24,000 jobs and $4.04 billion over the next 10 years. The plan was rejected by the Elk Grove Planning Commission in early 2021 and alternate sites were proposed. In mid-June 2021, the school announced its medical center would be built on property near Interstate 5 formerly known as the Sleep Train Arena in Sacramento, California. http://www.egcitizen.com/news/cnu-hospital-once-slated-for-elk-grove-to-be-built-in-sacramento/article_d0ff5386-d5dd-11eb-90ac-47aeda1e1240.html
