What is the cheapest PA school in Michigan?
Public does not mean one uniform resident discount. Grand Valley publishes the same PA tuition for residents and nonresidents, while Oakland and Western Michigan publish different rates. Old or internally inconsistent official figures are flagged instead of promoted as verified bargains.
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.

Michigan State shows a proposed increase alongside older totals, while UM-Flint has inconsistent arithmetic. Request a current cohort sheet before making an enrollment decision.
Can I study at a PA program in Traverse City?
Grand Valley lists a Traverse City site in addition to Grand Rapids. Both belong to the same accredited sponsor.
Does Grand Valley charge nonresidents more for PA tuition?
Its current PA cost sheet explicitly states the resident and nonresident tuition rate is the same.
How do I compare the cheapest PA schools in Michigan?
Compare full-degree tuition plus mandatory fees for your residency and cohort. Use estimates as planning figures and resolve unclear quotes directly with the school.
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.
