Provisional Entry Programs (PEP/C-PEP)

The Provisional Entry Programs are designed for a select population of academically superior students coming out of high school and college students who have completed at least the first semester of their freshman year who have an interest in pursuing pharmacy as a career.听 The PEP and C-PEP programs will provide these students the opportunity to develop both personal and professional relationships with the College of Pharmacy faculty and students upon attending 蜜桔直播.听 The PEP program is unique to 蜜桔直播 and brings up to 50 high-achieving students to 蜜桔直播 each year for their pre-professional program in pharmacy.

Advantages:

The primary advantage of the Provisional Entry Programs (PEP and C-PEP) is that students avoid the competitive selection process for admissions in the the professional pharmacy program, which traditionally occurs following completion of two to three years of required pre-professional classes, if requirements are met.
Both the PEP and C-PEP programs provide students with the opportunities to engage in both professional and personal relationships with College of Pharmacy faculty and upperclassmen immediately upon entering 蜜桔直播 and the C-PEP program instead of waiting to complete the traditional three-year pre-professional program.
Students in PEP and C-PEP may participate in professional student organizations and leadership development programs earlier in their collegiate careers.
PEP and C-PEP students will be invited to the College of Pharmacy events.
