Medical Terminology
Students admitted into the UVU Physician Assistant Program must score at least 80% on the medical terminology test they must take prior to the first day of school. This test will be assigned to students after acceptance into the program. If a student scores below 80%, they will be required to review a medical terminology module and then complete a comprehensive medical terminology test and receive at least 80% prior to the first day of school. If a score of 80% or higher is not completed by the first day of school, the student will work with their faculty advisor to meet the requirement.
