The Early Assurance pathway is structured and rigorous. In order to complete all prerequisite courses within the two-year window, students will need to complete at least two lab science courses per semester, beginning with the first semester.

Early Assurance students have the support of an academic advisor, but students are ultimately responsible for progressing through the curriculum as outlined and enrolling themselves in all required courses, per departmental processes and based on seat availability.

Students formally apply for PharmD admission in the fall of their sophomore year.  Those who are admitted will begin their P1 PharmD courses in the fall of their third year.  Prior to matriculating into the PharmD program, students must obtain a Level I Fingerprint Clearance Card, meet expanded immunization requirements as outlined by Campus Health, and must also certify that they meet the Essential Qualifications for PharmD Admission, Promotion, and Graduation.
