Make the numbers comparable
What is the cheapest PA school in Indiana?
Butler publishes full-program tuition, Franklin identifies a fixed cohort price, and Taylor combines tuition with general, university and lab fees. Evansville publishes a term rate. Compare the same categories and include every term before deciding which Indiana PA school is cheapest.
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.

Planning for PA school in Indiana
Choose the correct Fort Wayne program
Trine teaches its PA program in Fort Wayne rather than its Angola main campus. The University of Saint Francis also operates a separate PA program in Fort Wayne.
Check pathway eligibility
Valparaiso describes a five-year PA pathway. Confirm whether your educational history fits the current entry route rather than assuming every sponsor accepts the same graduate applicants.
Allow for clinical travel
Trine describes possible clinical assignments in other cities and additional housing. Campus-area rent may not cover the clinical phase.
Which accredited PA programs are in Indianapolis?
Butler and Indiana University have Indianapolis programs. South College Indianapolis is listed separately as an applicant.
Which Indiana program fixes tuition by cohort?
Franklin states that tuition remains constant for each cohort. Ask every program for its written policy and your entering-class cost sheet.
Is the lowest semester rate the cheapest degree?
Not necessarily. Count every billed term and mandatory fee. Annual or semester rates are not directly comparable with a complete degree quote.
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.
