Students thinking about pursuing a career as a physician assistant might consider majoring in these subjects while in undergrad: biology, chemistry, biochemistry, nursing, physical therapy, health sciences, neuroscience, nutrition, psychology, human development, pharmacology, gerontology, genetics or child development.

In the US, to apply to PA school, you need a bachelor's degree. Any 4-year university should suffice.
Pick a major that interests you so you don't mind devoting a majority of your hours to studying. You will need to get good grades in college in order to apply for PA school. Aside from this, any major is acceptable as long as you complete the prerequisite courses.

Pick a major that interests you so you don't mind devoting a majority of your hours to studying. You will need to get good grades in college because PA school has become quite competitive. If you enjoy your major, you will do well and connect with professors that will want to write strong letters of recommendation.
