Hey guys so I wanted your opinion on attending either UoP or UK COP. I have been discussing with several of my pharmacists between both schools. I am just looking for input/advice and this is a great place for that.
UoP Pros: CA school. 3-year program. Huge network (1/3 of CA pharmacists are UoP alumni. long history of the school. Top programs in CA.
UoP Cons: Expensive. Current rank #60. 3-year program(accelerated/no summers).
UK COP pros: Current rank #6 (was top 5 last ranking). Impressive facilities (5 story building built 2010). Huge beautiful campus. Long history/strength of program is known throughout nation (except CA, for some reason all my pharmacists drew blank stares) last residency match was around 95% (IMPRESSIVE. i want to do residency) 4 year program.
UK COP cons: its in Kentucky/relocation costs/time/anxiety (im a CA native and plan to work here). CA pharmacists dont have a clue of Kentucky's ranking. out of state tuition. 4 year program.
Thanks for your time!
