Career-changer friendly — At 300 required patient care hours, this is one of the lower bars in the country — worth a look if you are switching fields and building hours while you apply.
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.
Lower cost — In-state tuition of $67,366 is in the least expensive quarter of PA programs. Over a career that difference is real money.
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.
