University of Evansville

I chose UEPA because I wanted to stay within the Evansville community and was excited to be part of something that will have such a positive impact on our community.

After working with PAs in both the ER and clinic setting, I loved the close relationships that PAs were able to form with their patients.

I want to be a PA to be able to be there one day for people that are in spots I once was and give them care that can get them back to living their lives.

From the moment you walk through the doors on interview day, you feel at home.

The family culture that the faculty have worked hard to cultivate here is truly something special.

I could tell the faculty genuinely cared about us and wanted us to succeed.

Evansville is a wonderful community, and the University of Evansville is a fantastic school that sets all of their programs up for success.

You can have the independence to use critical thinking to solve a problem yourself or collaborate with your peers. There are also so many opportunities for growth in the field.

I had originally applied to UE’s PA Program because of the convenience of remaining in my hometown, where my husband and our families reside.

The faculty I met at my first interview were warm and caring and created an environment that I wanted to grow and learn from. The entire faculty treat us as a family rather than students.

The culture that UEPA has established also drew me to this program. I love the family atmosphere and that you are able to go to anyone if you need any sort of help.

I knew that UE's program was a great option from the start. They are consistently ranked as a top college in the Midwest and have had remarkable success in their other graduate programs.

When I heard about the PA profession, it seemed to perfectly check all my boxes. I loved how you are able to move around in different areas of medicine and between specialties without a problem.

Everything about the process of becoming a PA – getting into PA school, enduring the challenge of school, and continuing to grow and be resourceful as a provider – prepares you for life itself.

Rather than lecture us on how fortunate we were to attend the program, Dr. Roscoe expressed that the faculty at UEPA were truly privileged to have each one of us as a student.

There is no doubt that PA school is a challenge and that some sacrifices have to be made to be successful, but believe me, if others can do it, SO CAN YOU!

The UEPA program has a truly family atmosphere and environment where the faculty is there to help you in any way they can.

As a UEPA student, you’re a part of a team, and as a team, you work together to provide the best possible care for your patients.

Our professors and faculty are very invested in us, our well-being, and our success.

I wanted to train at a program where I could get involved with local providers during my clinical rotations. Being able to train in the city where I eventually wanted to work was very important to me.

The family culture that the faculty have worked hard to cultivate here is truly something special.

I had the chance to meet some of the UEPA faculty and staff before, during, as well as after the interview process and everyone was extremely welcoming, helpful, and encouraging.

The environment of the program is exactly like what they said during interviews. It is truly a family where we are supportive and take care of one another.

I have built great relationships with my professors and they are always available to the students.
