The program is held directly on our campus in Austin, Texas and consists of four academic phases and his three semesters. clinical stage. Students complete her seven core rotations, plus two elective rotations of her choice in various outpatient settings and hospitals.
USAHS’s MSPAS program has applied for Accreditation – Provisional from the Accreditation Review Board for the Education of Physician Assistants (ARC-PA). USAHS’ MSPAS plans to enroll her first MSPAS class in January 2024 until she achieves Accredited Provisional Status at her ARC-PA meeting in September 2023. Accreditation-Provisional appears to indicate the program’s ability to meet ARC-PA criteria if the plans and resource allocations of a proposed program that has not yet enrolled students are fully implemented as planned. Certification status granted when a program is certified, or if the program holds certification. – Interim status appears to indicate continued progress in compliance with standards as we prepare for graduation of our first class (cohort) of students.
If the program is not granted accredited provisional status by ARC-PA, students accepted into the MSPAS program at USAHS will receive a full refund of their bond and the program will not enroll in January 2024.
