I got accepted into Uconn Pre-pharmacy program (ACES). Anyone know what is acceptance rate from Uconn Pre-pharmacy to UConn Pharmacy program ?. Is it too hard and competitive ? Is Uconn give preference to their own student for Pharmacy program ? I have offer from other private colleges and they have 6 years direct program without giving PCAT, but they are expensive. Appreciate your feedback on this.
Congratulations! Did you receive a separate acceptance letter from the special program or is it come in the same Uconn Nation envelope?
No, I did not get any letter for special program.
I have the same questions. My D didn’t get a separate letter either just came in same UConn Nation envelope.
And to clarify no one received a letter confirming their acceptance to the special program in Pharmacy correct? Just ACES and pre-Pharmacy? My daughter had done a medicinal chemistry program at UConn last summer and a faculty member from the School of Pharmacy had done a presentation to the class indicating that that a candidate could have a trifecta of admissions to 1) UConn 2) Honors 3) Special Program in Pharmacy. It doesn’t sound like anyone has heard from SPiP. Please post if you have any decision from SPiP.
@RelocatedYankee I just received my admission into the Special Program in Pharmacy today in the postal mail (instate).
Congratulations! My daughter did as well!
