This mission is grounded in the tradition of the Ursuline Sisters of Cleveland who founded the college in 1871. Our foundress, St. Angela Merici, was an innovative woman from sixteenth century Italy who called the members of her Company of St. Ursula to growth in spirituality and upholding the dignity of all, especially women. “Transforming society through contemplation, justice and compassion” is the mission of the Ursuline Sisters of Cleveland today.
The mission of the Ursuline College Physician Assistant Program is to recruit exceptional individuals from diverse backgrounds and provide education expressed through the Ursuline tradition to develop adept, versatile, and compassionate physician assistants committed to delivering evidence-based whole person healthcare.
The vision of the Ursuline College Physician Assistant Program is to set the standard of PA education through transformative educational experiences that foster personal and professional growth. We are committed to developing leaders who adapt to the emerging challenges in healthcare and who innovate and inspire positive transformation in the communities they serve.
