doesn't indiana and kansas do the same thing? so that's a couple more off the list.

I'd recommend against it, that might constitute as insulting.

are they on their "clinical rotations" map on their website?

Yeah, both are. Kansas won't license anyone from a school less than 15 years old, and I expect Indiana, Maine, and Texas to add SMU to their unaccredited lists (as they all followed Oregon in banning St. Chris). Interestingly, these are all sites of purported clinicals.

CMU Operator 2: WHO approval for CMU is being finalized and will be confirmed by the beginning of the Fall semester (9/10/07).

CMU Operator 2: Affiliation agreements with hospitals are negoiated on a daily basis. I am not sure which hospital will be available at that time.

Why can this guy not answer a simple question with a simple answer?

They ask you which hospital you currently have and you are talking about around the country

First sign of a scam is the divertion.
