<p>*they have a 0-6 program</p>
<p>anyone know if this is true or not?</p>
<p>Re: UoS in Philadelphia
It seems to me that you can be admitted directly from hs for a 6 year program <em>OR</em> you can be admitted as a third year student after taking the PCAT and completing the course requirements. Main web page listed in post #18. See the FAQ's on the webpage.

<p>Re: Mass. College of Pharm and Hlth Sci
It looks to me that you can enter as a freshman at the Boston campus only. The other programs are for transfer students with college credit, a BS degree or BSPharm degree. The main page link is in post #18. Here is the admissions link:

<p>Of course, anyone who is seriously considering pharmacy school should call or write to the specific schools of interest.</p>
<p>University of the pacific is a really good school</p>
<p>Hmm... how's USC Pharmacy program?</p>
<p>university of southern car. does not offer a guarent,. program...unversity of south cali. not sure =( but i don;t think its a guarent program either</p>
<p>I know I am resurrecting a dead thread, but I have something to add about 0+6 programs. I have been hearing recently that 0+6 programs do not get the respect that 2+4 programs do. Probably this is because the 2+4 programs are harder to get into (and break more hearts). It is probable that Duquesne will be going to 2+4 because of this. And, perhaps some of the remaining 0+6 programs will follow. Of course, if you can still get into a 0+6 you will get your degree and your license and nobody will ever care where you attended. Check the pharmacy board pass rates of potential schools.</p>
<p>That sort of takes away some of the allure of the expensive private schools. It might be worth it if you know you will come out with a pharmacy degree, but I wouldn't spend the money on a wish and a prayer. You can do your first two years at a state school for much less $$$.</p>
<p>There are also [url=<a href=“http://www.pharmdprograms.org/accelerated-pharmacy-schools/]PharmD[/url”>http://www.pharmdprograms.org/accelerated-pharmacy-schools/]PharmD[/url</a>] Programs that allow students to complete their programs in just 3 years. So for these, you probably only need to do a 2+3 year, saving one year.</p>
<p>Rutgers is a 0-6 program (I go there) and its very well respected in my field of interest (industry).</p>
