More about the PCAT
- The Pharmacy College Admissions Test (PCAT) is required for admission.
- Register for the test through the Psychological Corporation at 1-800-622-3231 or online.
- For fall admission, we suggest you take the PCAT in June, August or October (unless you have taken the exam earlier).
- The UA College of Pharmacy Admissions Committee will not consider the results of a PCAT taken after the college's deadline date for admission applications. The January test will not be accepted for fall admission unless you have taken the PCAT previously.
- If you take the PCAT more than once, the college admissions committee will evaluate your highest score.
- A PCAT test score used for admission may not be more than two years old.
