in Arizona.
Compare Arizona’s PA programs across Mesa, Phoenix, Glendale, Goodyear and Tucson. Public resident rates and substantial program fees make it especially important to separate tuition alone from the amount actually billed.

Make the numbers comparable
What is the cheapest PA school in Arizona?
Northern Arizona and the University of Arizona publish separate resident and nonresident rates. Their program fees are significant, so the lowest tuition-only figure is not necessarily the lowest tuition-and-fees total.
These are verified published cost entries, not a definitive statewide cheapest-school ranking. Coverage, rate years and included charges vary. Fees, housing, insurance and clinical travel can change the final comparison.
No current full-program quote meets the comparison criteria above. Review each card’s rate year, estimate or missing information before comparing costs.

Planning for PA school in Arizona
Use the PA teaching location
Northern Arizona University’s PA program lists its address in Phoenix, not Flagstaff. Creighton also has a Phoenix program distinct from Omaha; select the correct campus when researching requirements and costs.
Read hybrid attendance requirements
Franklin Pierce’s Arizona program is based in Goodyear and uses a hybrid format. Its cost page separates immersion travel and clinical travel, so remote coursework should not be interpreted as a travel-free program.
Are Arizona public-program fees included in tuition?
Not always. NAU separately lists program and mandatory fees, and the University of Arizona separately lists program and AFAT fees. The cards specify the cost basis used.
Are all listed Arizona options accredited?
The main list contains programs with an accreditation status on the current ARC-PA roster. Developing applicants appear separately; applicant status does not confer accreditation.
Sources you can check
Accreditation and state placement use the current ARC-PA roster, with program sites for campus details. Each cost card links to its university source. “Verified” means the displayed amount and scope were located in an official source on the review date; it does not mean the rate applies to every future entering class.
Tuition-only and tuition-plus-fees totals stay separate. Annual and per-term figures are not treated as full-program totals. Calculated estimates are labelled and excluded from full-program sorts. “Not verified” means a reliable comparable amount was not established, not that a program is free.
Continued, Provisional and Probation are accreditation statuses; applicant programs are not yet accredited. “F” identifies a focused visit. Program-specific cost and accreditation details here reflect this state review; the national directory and paid comparison dataset retain their separately dated snapshots.
