Question by Lucy: Is a Bachelor’s in nursing the best degree to get if I want to eventually go on to be a Physician Assistant?
I am a freshmen in college and I would like to pursue a career as a physician assistant. My current major is healthcare administration with a minor in gerontology. I really don’t want to major in any science (bio or chem). All PA schools require that you finish certain prerequisites, but most also say that they do not care what you major in as long as you finish those courses. However, would a Bachelor’s in Nursing better prepare me for PA school? Would it give me more of an edge when I apply? Or is healthcare administration an okay major to stick with?

Answer by firestarter
I have seen BSN’s go to PA school. There are 2 ways to become a PA either get a bachelor’s or a master’s. It’s weird. Take the prerequisites required for a PA. Some nurses do obtain letters of recommendation from physicians they have worked with. PA’s are respected more.If you go the BSN route, extra courses may be required to get into PA School but you will have a back up plan should PA school doesn’t work out. PA’s are part of the medical field and nursing is nursing.Find out what your prerequisites are. Nursing is pretty rigid on prerequisites. Health care administration is great if you are management material. A “yes” person. There is a lot of politics going on up the ladder. Good luck on your search and may this year go well for you.
