The Physician Assistant Program began enrolling students in September 1997. We are presently working with the Accreditation Review Committee on Education for the Physician Assistant to obtain accreditation. Although accreditation is neither automatic nor guaranteed, we are hopeful and confidant that our program will be granted accreditation. We expect to be visited by the Accreditation Committee during the Academic year 1999 - 2000. Specific information regarding the licensing process can be obtained by contacting the licensing authority in the state in which you intend to practice.
