Overview

Program Details

Beyond requirements for a bachelor’s degree and strong science background, PA programs often give more consideration to applicants with a broader, well-rounded education.

At the Pre-Physician Assistant advising program at Augustana College you’ll choose a major (most choose biology) and the specific pre-PA advising program. You are required to obtain 1,000 hours of clinical experience on your own to satisfy PA program expectations and build your skills and confidence as a future physician assistant.
