This curriculum is designed around patient care and targets educational outcome competencies for today’s professional practice pharmacist. The curriculum also incorporates an integrated lab sequence. |
| Additional Requirements | The College’s Office of Student and Professional Affairs manages all admissions procedures with oversight by the College’s Admissions Committee. The number of students accepted annually is decided based on the availability of educational resources. Application is made through PharmCAS, a centralized admissions system. Supplemental application materials are sent directly to the College. In addition to meeting the requirements for admission of the University of Louisiana at Monroe, applicants to the professional pharmacy program must meet the following criteria: (a) Complete the required pre-requisite coursework with no grade less than “C”; (b) A pre-requisite, cumulative, and math/ science grade-point average of at least 2.75 (uncorrected, based on a 4.0 system) in all previous coursework undertaken, exclusive of developmental courses, whether passed or failed at all institutions of attendance; (c) A PCAT composite score that is competitive with the applicant pool. Applications to PharmCAS and all other supplemental application materials and payments are due by March 1. All preparatory coursework and university core curriculum requirements must be completed prior to starting the professional program which starts with the fall semester. Coursework completed more than seven years prior to the applicant’s requested admission date may not be used to satisfy the pre-requisites. Only PCAT scores earned within the last two years preceding the applicant’s effective professional program admission date are considered. Official scores from the PCAT must be submitted to PharmCAS. Qualified applicants, as determined by the Admissions Committee, will be invited to campus for interviews. Complete explanations of application procedures are available online at the College of Pharmacy website http://www.ulm.edu/ pharmacy/admissionscycle.html. |
