Holistic review considers academic performance, quality and extent of direct care, understanding of the PA role, maturity, leadership, service, personal statement and recommendations. Higher GPAs and upper-level science grades of B or better receive preference. PA shadowing and volunteer hours are selection factors, but no fixed minimum is published for either. Special consideration goes to veterans, Logan graduates and applicants with socioeconomic or educational disadvantage.

Eight prerequisite subjects are listed, but numeric credit minima are not published. Separate basic Human Anatomy with lab and basic Human Physiology may be replaced by a two-semester Human A&P series with labs. Do not add both routes. All prerequisites must be graded C or better, with no C-minus or pass/fail. Complete them within ten years of application; science within five years is preferred, not mandatory.
When courses must be complete: No more than two prerequisites may be pending at application. All prerequisites and the bachelor’s degree must be completed by September 1 before January entry. The page requires application materials by September 1 but separately gives November 1 for official prerequisite transcripts; confirm the final-transcript deadline and submit initial required transcripts by the application deadline. Conditional acceptance can be withdrawn for late completion or grades below C.
The January 2027 cohort used Logan’s own online portal, not CASPA. It opened February 2, 2026 and closed September 1, 2026; the main program page now explicitly says applications are closed. All required materials, including three letters, transcripts and applicable English scores, were due September 1. CASPA color/status rules do not apply.

The prerequisite subsection gives November 1 for official transcripts, while the application checklist requires college transcripts by September 1. Confirm which final records may follow later.
First enrollment is scheduled for January 2027; no students have graduated.
The June/July 2026 FAQ says applications for the 2028 class begin in April 2027. A closing date and any change in portal/CASPA route for that cycle are not established.

Current costs for the anticipated January 2027 launch remain unconfirmed. Two official Summer 2025 pages differ: the recruitment page estimates $125,529 in full-program tuition and fees for that launch but retains outdated pre-accreditation and application wording. The admissions table, labeled Class of January 2026, lists $115,000 tuition, $122,230 tuition and fees, and $184,700 attendance costs; its course-fee arithmetic also conflicts. Ask admissions for a current itemized budget.
The old table’s course-fee annual values are $2,725 + $2,725 = $5,450, but the total column says $4,450, a $1,000 difference. Tuition plus program fees using the annual course values totals $122,230, matching the printed headline; using the printed course total gives $121,230. Additional-cost rows sum to the printed $28,160 in year one and $34,310 in year two, totaling the printed $62,470. Together with the annual-row tuition and fees, these equal the printed $184,700 attendance total. The $3,000 international elective is optional but included in the old printed allowance totals. These calculations identify discrepancies rather than replace the school’s price. The current PA-specific finance page separately gives per-trimester housing/food of $6,765 off campus or $2,977 with parents, personal allowance $4,812, transportation $1,432 and loan fees $108, across six trimesters. Clinical-year travel adds $500 per month; an optional international rotation adds $3,000. These annually adjustable financial-aid allowances differ in basis and period from the older program table and should not be combined into a single current total.
Three trimesters of 24, 23.5 and 23.5 credits integrate clinical anatomy, assessment/documentation, diagnostics/procedures, pharmacology, clinical reasoning and pathophysiology/clinical medicine, plus professional studies and foundations of practice.
Three 16-credit trimesters each contain three five-credit, five-week supervised rotations plus a one-credit graduate seminar. Seven core fields are family medicine, internal medicine, surgery, emergency medicine, pediatrics, women’s health and behavioral health; two rotations are electives.
The sequence totals 119 credits. Clinical-year seminars support an applied thesis, evidence appraisal and professional development, with on-campus intensive weeks after rotations and summative exams before graduation. The last trimester is 17 weeks. Rotation order varies. A Belize international elective is application-based, limited to satisfactory standing and carries additional travel, insurance and related costs.
Cohort year and experience averages need verification.
The inaugural class is scheduled to enter in January 2027. No graduates, observed PANCE rates, attrition percentages or admitted-class averages are available. Outcomes tables contain blank future Class of 2028–2030 columns; their graduation/PANCE benchmarks and other targets are goals, not measured results.
Class averages describe an admitted cohort. They are not minimums or acceptance probabilities.

ARC-PA granted Provisional status with a maximum class size of 40 and a monitoring date to be determined.
The July history requests student-evaluation evidence and a response to the related commission observation by this date; it does not establish that these future reports have been accepted.
ARC-PA granted Accreditation-Provisional in July 2026, with maximum entering class size 40 and the next provisional-monitoring review date still to be determined. The history notes two noncompliance areas and one observation. Student-evaluation reports/responses are due October 1, 2026; no additional report was due for the acknowledged medical-director appointment-timing issue. Provisional accreditation is current accreditation but does not guarantee a later status.

The U.S. News PA rank uses the 2025 PA edition, matched to the listed program and campus. It reflects peer-assessed reputation, not admissions odds or a personal fit score. Programs without a separate entry are labeled “Unranked.”
Unpublished policies and unverified cohort statistics are left open for confirmation.
