What is the cheapest PA school in Kentucky?

Brescia provides a full-program figure that includes technology fees. UK and Cumberlands publish semester rates, which cannot be compared directly with a whole-degree price. Sullivan's currently linked schedule is older, so applicants should obtain the contract for their entering cohort before treating it as current.

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 Kentucky

Keep campus and sponsor counts separate

UK's Morehead campus is part of the University of Kentucky program. Cumberlands' Northern Kentucky program in Florence is separately accredited from Williamsburg and currently has a different status.

Check the price year

The lowest number in a directory may belong to an earlier cohort. Ask for a written tuition-and-required-fees schedule that covers every semester of your own class.

How many accredited PA programs are in Kentucky?

Five sponsoring programs appear on the current ARC-PA roster. This page also includes UK's Morehead teaching campus, giving six listings.

Do the Cumberlands campuses have the same accreditation status?

No. The current roster lists Williamsburg as Continued and Northern Kentucky as Probation. Review the separate accreditation histories before selecting a program.

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.
