magboo Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 Hello to all! I am so indecisive & narrowed my options to Pace University and Northeastern University. The thing is, I have been accepted to Northeastern PA/MPH portion which is more expensive than the typical PA track. Also, I currently live in NYC so Pace will be financially convenient for me. However, I have heard good things about Northeastern's reputation & always wanted to move out of state. If anyone has good advice, please let me know! THANK YOU Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MT2PA Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 As a former PA/MPH student - don't do the combined program. Unless you have very clear career options requiring both up front, it will be SO much cheaper to obtain the MPH later. While my cohort enjoyed the coursework of the MPH, nearly all of us agreed it was not worth the money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magboo Posted January 5, 2020 Author Share Posted January 5, 2020 Thank you so much for replying! How did you feel about balancing the coursework compared to other PA students who were not in the PA/mph track? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PArtnerincrime Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 If you are accepted into the PA/MPH program at Northeastern you can later decide to only matriculate into the PA program. This is on the FAQs page under the dual degree program. Just saw this thread so not sure if you already decided, but either way, good luck!
