Is there any significant difference between attending a PA program that offers a Bachelor of Science Degree in Physician Assistant vs. a Masters of Physician Assistant upon completion of the program?
All PA programs are accredited by the ARC-PA. All programs must meet the same standards in order to graduate students so they can sit for the PANCE exam. Once they pass this exam, they must obtain their license in the state they wish to practice.
This standard is the same across the board, regardless of the degree type offered by the PA program. The degree type earned should not determine a student's capacity to be hired since each PA program is required to meet the same set of standards.
In 2020 (with the start class of 2019), the profession will shift to the master's degree as the entry and terminal degree, meaning, all programs will have a mechanism in place to award the master's credential upon graduation from the PA program.
