Texas PA Programs

We appreciate your interest in the physician assistant profession.  With the increased demand for PAs as partners in the health care team, we anticipate more to be opening in the near future.  Educational expenses (tuition, fees, books, supplies) for Texas residents for a two-year program range from approximately $6,000 to $8,500.  Living expenses are estimated at $1,500 a month.  Contact each individual program for their specific requirements and cost.
