Graduation Requirements

Curriculum

  • Because of the sequential nature of our courses, students will be expected to complete all courses in each term before progressing to the next term. All students will complete the program in 27 months, unless there are significant extenuating circumstances. 
  • All didactic courses must be completed prior to entering clinical rotations. All required clinical rotations must be completed before graduation.

The information presented here is planned for the Â鶹´«Ã½ Physician Assistant Studies Program providing accreditation is received from the regional accreditor, the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools, and the PA Program accreditor, ARC-PA.
