MCPHS University - Manchester\/Worcester PA Program: Requirements, Tuition & Stats

Who This Program May Be A Good Fit For

  • 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.

  • Large cohort — A class of 115 is among the biggest in the country. More seats improves your odds, and the alumni network is larger, but you will need to be proactive about mentorship.

  • No extra standardized testing — No GRE, PA-CAT, or CASPer required — one less hurdle if standardized tests are not your strength.

  • Strong PANCE outcomes — A first-time PANCE pass rate of 97% is above the national average.

  • 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.
