The University of Balamand has applied to the Accreditation Council for Education in Nutrition and Dietetics (ACEND®) to open an ACEND accredited Nutrition and Dietetics Foreign Dietitian Education Program (FDE) to prepare Registered Dietitian Nutritionists.

Our eligibility application was accepted by ACEND and we are in the pre-candidacy process for our proposed program. The program is not accepting applications to an ACEND-accredited FDE at this time but will do so upon successful completion of the candidacy for accreditation process to achieve ACEND accreditation. Students are still able to apply to our current program; see here
