PA Postgraduate Program at a Glance

  • Specialty: Hospitalist
  • Location: Aurora, CO
  • Accreditation: Not ARC-PA Accredited
  • Program length: CONTRADICTORY — the programme's own page says 12 months ("a fellowship salary of $77,174 for the 12-month program") while the CU Office of Advanced Practice hub that links to it calls it a "13-month multiphase program". Both pages are live and current (read 2026-08-16). Confirm with the programme before relying on either.
