The University of Saskatchewan's struggling College of Medicine is about to go under the microscope.

A team from the committee that accredits all North American medical schools will be at the university March 12-13.

The team will hold closed-door meetings with officials, faculty and students to check up on the college's work on 10 standards that were cited in July 2011 as being weak or deficient.

The College of Medicine is fully accredited, but has been on warning of probation since July 2011.

School officials have said progress is being made, but the results might not be enough for accreditors.

Insufficient progress could mean a continuation of the warning of probation or probation.
