PA Programs at Chamberlain

The PA profession can be your path to a fulfilling and respected career as a healthcare provider.  

• The PA field is a good fit for those who are motivated by a desire to impact medicine directly through patient care and a team-based approach.
• Physician assistants are expected to continue to be an important part of providing healthcare services, as they can complete their educational preparation faster than physicians but can provide most of the same services.
• The PA profession is one of the fastest growing healthcare careers nationwide – the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics projects 28% employment growth (much faster than average) for physician assistants between 2023 and 2033. In that period, an estimated 43,400 jobs are anticipated to become available.
   

•    With full-time enrollment, you can expect to complete the program in as few as two years so you can move forward on the path toward your career faster. 
•    Chamberlain does the work in securing your clinical site for the second year of the program through our established network of clinical partners and broad access to learning across settings – including rural, urban, specialized and underserved populations.

Yes, each Chamberlain location offering the MPAS program is considered its own program within CASPA. When you complete your application within CASPA, you may select all of the Chamberlain MPAS programs (Chicago, Phoenix or Richmond) if you desire, or just one. The admission process is separate for each program, so you would hear from each campus separately to determine if you are invited to an interview.
