<p>Hey, does anyone know about SUNY Buffalo's pharmacy program. Is it a 6 year pharmD program where you need to maintain a minimum GPA to stay in?Or is it a 8 year program program with guaranteed admisson to the second 4 years if a minimum GPA is maintained? Or is it a school where students take 4 years of undergrad and then need to apply for 4 years of pharmacy school?</p>
<p>Any help would be appreacited.
Thanks,</p>

<p>its 6 yr i think, but you need to take and pass the PCAT. (which some schools dont require) so you could potentially waste 2 years of prepharm.</p>
<p>If you pass the PSAT are you automatically in the other 4 years?</p>
<p>there is no passing, its like the SAT where you just get a grade, and there is really no failure. im not 100% on this but im almost positive its just like SAT.</p>
<p>I made a typo not I ment PCAT not "PSAT"</p>
<p>well PCAT is the same i think, ^_^;; there is no passing but its like the SAT where there are higher and lower grades</p>
<p>so is Buffalo like 2 years of pre-pharm followed by 4 years of pharmacy which you only get into IF you do well on the PCAT</p>
<p>Avoid it!</p>
<p>My dad's a pharmacist. He knows someone who went into the program a few years ago, did the first two years and then they wouldn't let him in to the professional program.</p>
<p>Look at Albany College of Pharmacy, you're accepted directly into the 6 year program and don't have to worry about applying after 2 years. </p>
<p>I'm not sure, but does UCONN have a 6 year program you can apply to as a freshman? I know they have pharmacy, but I'm not sure if they program is like Buffalo's.</p>
<p>Uconn does not have a 6 year program.</p>
