| Curriculum | All freshmen pharmacy students admitted to the College are classified as Pharm.D. students. The six-year pharmacy curriculum includes instruction in the liberal arts, scientific, preprofessional and professional areas. Students enrolled in other majors offered at St. John’s University may be enrolled in basic science and general education courses with pharmacy majors, however enrollment in the majority of courses in the pharmacy curriculum is restricted to pharmacy majors only. Students develop an appreciation for contemporary pharmacy practice through their enrollment in experiential rotations that are included throughout the curriculum. In particular, in the fifth and sixth years of the program, there is a significant emphasis placed on experiential education. Traditional teaching techniques as well as integrated teaching and team teaching strategies are utilized by the faculty in many of the professional didactic courses included in the curriculum. The Drugs and Diseases courses are a particularly innovative component of the curriculum. These courses are taught using an integrated and sequential method of instruction relevant to the specific disease states incorporating the areas of pathophysiology, pharmacology, medicinal chemistry, therapeutics and self-care therapies. Problem based learning skills and critical thinking skills are emphasized throughout the curriculum. |
| Additional Requirements | Admission to the University is determined by the applicant’s graduation from an accredited secondary school, academic preparation, performance and personal qualities. The Committee on Admission considers such factors as: scholastic records, results in intelligence and achievement tests, character and personal qualities, class standing, work experience, honors and awards. College Entrance Board Tests (SAT), with the exception of achievement tests, are required. Applicants to the first year of the pharmacy program are required to have completed sixteen units of high school work (including English, mathematics, laboratory sciences, and humanities and social sciences) in an accredited four-year secondary school. No student who because of academic or disciplinary reasons has been placed on probation in another institution is eligible for admission to the College of Pharmacy and Allied Health Professions. Admission to the Pharm.D. program is highly competitive, and admission and scholarship criteria are determined each year on the strength of the applicant pool. Applicants are encouraged to visit the campus. Applicants wishing to meet with current students and/or attend classes should contact the University Office of Admission. |
