What are the differences between the PA programs at MCPHS?
The PA Studies program at the urban-based Boston campus begins each fall and lasts 30 months. There are separate prerequisite requirements, clinical sites, faculty and differences in the curriculum from the Manchester/Worcester program. The Manchester/Worcester program offers an accelerated 24-month program and begins each January. Its rural focus and attention to underserved populations are hallmarks of the program. The students attending the Worcester campus receive their lecture based-courses via high-tech video conferencing equipment emanating from the Manchester campus.
