Pre-Allied Health Science (Physical Therapy/Physician Assistant), A.A. (General Transfer)Academic Program Code: 500 The Allied Health Science (Physical Therapy/Physician Assistant) Pre-Major program is for motivated students who have an interest in health care and wish to seek a Bachelor of Science degree in Allied Health Science and then continue their studies in a graduate level physical therapy (PT) or physician assistant (PA) program. Physical therapists and physician assistants are highly educated professionals who work in teams with physicians and other health care workers to treat patients. By declaring this pre-major, students are on track to graduate with an Associate of Arts degree from GRCC and transfer to a 4-year institution to complete a Bachelor's degree in Allied Health Science. This program is not intended for students who are seeking to be prepared for work at the Bachelor's degree level. |
