Arcadia University - Hybrid Physician Assistant Program - bjcheung77 - 01-06-2022
So, you want to be a PA and Yale's online version with residencies was not an option... Maybe this would work for you when they get properly "accredited". There are no tuition fees on their site, but I believe it should be comparable to the Yale program in content and price...
ARC-PA Accreditation Status
The Arcadia University Hybrid Physician Assistant Program has applied for Accreditation – Provisional from the Accreditation Review Commission on Education for the Physician Assistant (ARC-PA). The Arcadia University Hybrid Physician Assistant Program anticipates matriculating its first class in January 2023 pending achieving Accreditation – Provisional status at the September 2022 ARC-PA meeting. Accreditation – Provisional is an accreditation status granted when the plans and resource allocation, if fully implemented as planned, of a proposed program that has not yet enrolled students appear to demonstrate the program’s ability to meet the ARC-PA Standards or when a program holding accreditation-provisional status appears to demonstrate continued progress in complying with the Standards as it prepares for the graduation of the first class (cohort) of students.
If the ARC-PA does not approve Accreditation – Provisional status for the Arcadia University Hybrid Physician Assistant Program, a class will not matriculate in January 2023. For more information regarding accreditation, please visit the ARC-PA website or contact ARC-PA at 12000 Findley Road, Suite 275, Johns Creek, GA 30097, or 770-476-1224.
The PA Program does not grant students advanced placement upon admission.
NCCPA PANCE Exam data will be published when data becomes available.

Here's an update. I'm afraid it's not very good.
