The Campbell University College of Pharmacy & Health Sciences is committed to selecting applicants who will be an asset to the profession of pharmacy. The goals of the admissions process are to: 1) understand each applicant as a total person, 2) evaluate the potential for success in the Doctor of Pharmacy (Pharm.D.) Program, and 3) assess the candidate's commitment and aptitude as a future practicing pharmacist. Each applicant's academic background and achievement, personal statement, Pharmacy College Admissions Test (PCAT) scores, and letters of recommendation will be considered by the Admissions Committee.

Each applicant must complete a minimum of 64 semester hours of college credit prior to entry into the professional curriculum. All pre-professional academic work must be done at an accredited college or university in the United States. A minimum grade point average of 2.5 on a 4.0 scale in all coursework attempted will be considered for admission to the Pharm.D. Program. In addition to academic performance, the Admissions Committee places emphasis on personal merit, leadership, community involvement, maturity, communication skills, and dedication to professional goals. Beginning each fall, members of the next class are selected using a modified rolling admissions procedure. Under this system, qualified applicants are admitted to the School of Pharmacy on an ongoing basis until the class isfilled. Applicants are strongly encouraged to submit all required admissionsdocuments early in the academic year to maximize their admissions potential.

Applications received after November 1st each year face significantly increased competition for admission and may be placed on a waiting list, regardless of qualifications. The final deadline for applications is February 1st.
