Every student in the Master of Physician Assistant Studies Class of 2021 passed the profession’s national certifying exam on the first try.
The 100% first-time time pass rate on the Physician Assistant National Certifying Exam (PANCE) is well above the national average of 93%, said Associate Professor Paul Allen, Sr., DSc, MPAS, PA-C, FAAPA, program director and chair of the Department of Physician Assistant Studies at UT Health San Antonio. “Our personal benchmark is that we want to score at or better than the national average,” Dr. Allen said.
UT Health San Antonio School of Health Professions’ B.S. Medical Sciences program is hosting a Zoom Information Session for students who are interested in learning more about the program.
Faculty and the admissions team will be available to answer questions.
We look forward to meeting you!
