State-by-state PA program guides
Each state guide breaks down every accredited PA program in that state: what they require, how competitive they are, and what makes each one different.
Do not see your state? Some states have no accredited PA program at all. See states without a PA program for what to do if you live in one of them. We add new state guides regularly.
BEFORE YOU APPLY
How to build a smart school list
Applying to PA school is expensive, so where you apply matters as much as how strong your application is. A good list is built on fit and numbers, not on reputation.
Compare prerequisites, patient care hour requirements, and GRE policies before you fall in love with a program. A school whose requirements you cannot meet is not on your list.
Run your cumulative, science, and prerequisite GPAs through our calculator so you are comparing yourself against each program the way CASPA will.
Many public programs strongly favor in-state residents. Your home state guide is almost always the highest-yield place to start.
A School List Strategy Session talks through your priorities with a PA coach and turns your list into a personalized reach, target, and safety list before you spend on CASPA fees.
Do not submit until it is right. Let us make this your cycle.
