Based on an August 2025 decision, the California State University - San Bernardino Master of Science in Physician Assistant (MSPA) Program did not receive provisional accreditation from the Accreditation Review Commission on Education for the Physician Assistant (ARC-PA). Therefore, the program is not currently matriculating students or accepting applications.
CSUSB is disheartened to share this news after years of preparation and unwavering support from elected leaders, healthcare partners, and our local community. Although accreditation was not granted, the mission and vision that inspired this program continue to guide the University. CSUSB remains committed to creating innovative solutions that expand the healthcare workforce and strengthen the wellbeing of the Inland Empire.
The University will communicate any future updates as they become available.
