Our Physician Assistant Program is a direct, hands-on way to becoming a healthcare professional in just two and a half years—one with the flexibility to move between specialties. By the end of the program, you’ll earn a MS degree and eligibility to sit for the Physician Assistant National Certification Examination (PANCE).

We are one of the oldest degree-granting physician assistant programs in the country and among the most affordable. Designed to prepare highly qualified and compassionate healthcare professionals, our program equips graduates to work alongside physicians across a wide range of medical settings. We take pride in preparing students whose education is grounded in community connection and service, and in advancing academic excellence, collaborative practice, and interprofessional teamwork.
