Where can I become a Physicians Assistant?

I’m not big on schools, but sooner or later I’m going to have to go. I know I want to try for at least a four year, but I can’t decide if I want a general degree (BBA) or another degree that will lead me to become a PA. I don’t even know which degree will get me into a PA program which lasts for two years. I can’t even find any schools in the area which offer anything close to it. Advice please!

you’ll need a BS before you can be a PA. go to a 4 year college, preferably in a pre-med program (usually biology degree, biochem or just chemistry). you can go to PA school without a biology background, but it’s way more difficult when you get to PA school.

look at medical schools in your area to see if they have PA programs. usually the PA program is an abridged medical school program.

good luck
