The weight of your graduate institution...


Recommended Posts

PA program rankings in U.S. News and World Report are not based on objective numbers (i.e. PANCE pass rates or job placement rates). These rankings are purely subjective, so the big names tend to rank higher than the little names. I agree that you should go with the program that you feel will best prepare you as a PA, has the highest PANCE pass rates, and "feels right", not necessarily the higher ranked school (esp. in this case where rankings mean nothing except winning the name game). Either way, in the end you will be a PA. I can't say any prospective employer has ever commented - good or bad - on where I obtained by PA degree from. When the time comes to get a job, you want YOU not your school's name to get you the position. Good luck!
