An Exciting Update to Our Upcoming Cohort
As part of the program’s ongoing programmatic assessment, the MMSc-PAM program at Tarleton State University is pleased to announce that our second cohort will launch in May 2027.
The updated program length of 27 months means a streamlined, well-integrated path to becoming a highly trained PA prepared to serve the communities that need you most.
This thoughtful adjustment reflects our commitment to continuous improvement and our dedication to delivering the highest quality educational experience for every student who joins our program. By aligning our start date with established institutional processes, we are creating a smoother, more cohesive academic journey — from your very first day through graduation.
Whether you are just beginning to explore a career in physician assistant medicine or are actively preparing your application, this is a wonderful time to take the next step. Our program remains fully committed to developing compassionate, skilled clinicians ready to make a real difference — especially in rural and underserved Texas communities.
We look forward to welcoming our next cohort of future PAs.
