Lawrence Technological University PA Program: Requirements, Tuition & Stats

• Faster to practice — At 24 months, this program is shorter than most. That means less tuition and earlier income, but a denser schedule with little slack.

• Apply early — Admissions are rolling, so seats come off the board as the cycle goes. An application submitted in the first few weeks is worth more than the same application submitted in month four.

• Newer program — This program holds provisional accreditation, which is normal for a program that has not yet graduated its first classes. Expect a smaller alumni network and fewer years of PANCE data.

• Stricter prerequisite grades — A minimum of B- in prerequisites is tougher than the typical C. Recheck your transcript before you invest in the application.

Recommended: Pathophysiology – This course integrates the specific characteristics and mechanisms of normal and abnormal functioning of tissues and organs of the human body organized in a systems-based approach. Students will learn the relationships of function and dysfunction at the molecular, cellular, tissue organ and systemic levels. Medical terminology is not required but strongly encouraged as you will be testing on your medical terminology knowledge the first week of classes. Genetics is strongly encouraged as a foundational class for the PA curriculum and the understanding of new treatments targeted at the genetics of individuals. Ethics or Medical Ethics – The LTU PA program is committed to the ethical considerations of medicine and a foundation in ethics is invaluable in providing a framework from which to build and integrate this approach.
