Application Process

1. PharmCAS Application

The É«»¨Ìà College of Pharmacy participates in the , a national centralized application service that offers the convenience of one general application for multiple doctor of pharmacy degree programs. É«»¨ÌÃCOP is no longer participating in Early Decision through PharmCAS. We have implemented a Priority Admission process instead.

About Priority Admission

If you would like to be offered admission by November 8 we encourage you to take advantage of Priority Admission.

In addition to completing the PharmCAS application, you must arrange for PharmCAS to receive all your official transcripts and fee by October 1.

Other required items such as letters of reference and volunteer service should be provided without delay. If these items are received after October 1, consideration for Priority Admission is still possible IF received in time for committee review AND before slots for Priority Admission interview days are full. 

If your application, transcripts, or fee arrive after the deadline, you will still be considered for admission to É«»¨ÌÃCOP, and may be interviewed after the October interview days.

Applicants may apply to multiple schools while being considered for Priority Admission.
