Harris Department of Physician Assistant Studies
The Wingate University Physician Assistant Studies Program is one program offered at two campuses. The program admits one class each year, beginning in late August. The Wingate University PA Studies Program accepts 60 students per cohort. About forty students are admitted to the Wingate campus and twenty to the Hendersonville campus. The program uses synchronous distance learning, wherein faculty interact in real time with students, regardless of which Wingate University location they’re attending. Students can engage with each other at both locations during class.
