Abstract
In accordance with the call from multiple academic medicine bodies and professional medical societies, the physician assistant studies program at a small northeastern university implemented a holistic admissions process in 2008 with the intent of increasing diversity in the classroom. This manuscript outlines the processes that occurred and the results that ensued after adoption of a holistic admissions process.
