Well, I am a PA student attending a sort of no name institution in Buffalo.
So if I decided to do a post bacc once I finish this degree (its a bachelors), do you think it would help to goto a big name post bacc or is the name not that important in the post bacc world?

I'm most interested in Columbia's program. Anyone know how costly it is? I think I'll spend a few years payng off my PA school debt before even considering a post bacc.
 
This program seems very inexpensive to me, as far as fancy post-bacs go. They also hook you up with research experience, good volunteer positions and application support all for the cost of the tuition. It is a least worth taking a look at.
