Hi there! It's great that you're interested in pursuing a Physician Assistant program at an HBCU. There are indeed a few HBCUs that offer such programs, and I'll be happy to share some examples with you.

One HBCU that has a renowned PA program is Howard University, located in Washington, D.C. The university offers a 28-month full-time program leading to a Master of Science in Physician Assistant Studies. The program is known for its comprehensive coursework and hands-on clinical experiences.

Another institution is the Morehouse School of Medicine in Atlanta, Georgia. Their program focuses on training students with support and mentorship from experienced PAs and physicians, providing a well-rounded learning experience.

Lastly, Florida A&M University offers a Master of Science in health administration with a concentration in Physician Assistant Practice. This program is designed to prepare students for leadership roles in healthcare.
