This PA Program Is Closed — Not Accepting Applicants
Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland Physician Associate Programme (Dublin, Ireland) is not accepting new students, and you cannot apply to it for any current or upcoming cycle.
What happened: This is an Irish MSc Physician Associate programme, not a US PA program — it has never been ARC-PA accredited, and admissions are paused. It is listed here for reference only and does not lead to US PA certification.
Currently or formerly enrolled? Contact the sponsoring institution’s registrar for transcripts and records. Graduates of a program that was accredited at the time of their attendance remain eligible to sit for the PANCE — direct certification questions to the NCCPA.

Accreditation status is reported from the ARC-PA, the sole accrediting authority for US PA programs. Last verified 25 July 2026.
