The EVMS Physician Assistant program is highly competitive. To help applicants informally gauge the strength of their application, we collect admissions statistics. Review the statistics.
Due to occasional review and revision of admission policies and practices, no guarantee is implied or should be inferred regarding future application cycles.
The Physician Assistant program hosts several information sessions through the year. These meetings are intended to cover the basics of the PA profession, overview the pathway to becoming a physician assistant and specifics about the application process and educational dynamics of our program.

Student-guided tours of the school facilities and campus are also offered. Feel free to invite spouses, significant others or other members of your family/support system if they are interested in hearing the information presented.
