The pre-physician assistant curriculum at Eastern Oregon University is designed to meet the requirements for admission to a school of Physician Assistant Studies, as well as to place you in a position to complete a Baccalaureate degree within four years. Students must obtain a B.A./ B.S. degree prior to being accepted into most professional schools.
Typical prerequisite coursework includes one-year sequences of general biology with lab, general chemistry with lab, anatomy and physiology with lab, in addition to courses which include microbiology with lab, upper division natural science coursework, general psychology, statistics, and English composition. Most professional schools require a minimum of six months to one-year in a responsible health care position (paid or volunteer). Students are strongly encouraged to obtain prerequisite requirements for the school to which they will be applying and to work closely with their pre-physician assistant adviser when selecting appropriate coursework. Admission to physician assistant programs is highly competitive, requiring high academic achievement
