Sometimes when TSU gets audited by ACPE,there will be a rumor that TSU may lose their accreditation.
Here's a link about the audits from ACPE at TSU

Wow, I didn't know that UNT was a bad pharmacy school too and that the students don't know much.
I would love to know what does their Suite in the old Nasico building looks like, I'm assuming that it's out of date.
They aren't shutting down yet but St. Louis College of Pharmacy officially changed their name. Now the pharmacy part is an afterthought. University of Health Sciences and Pharmacy in St. Louis. They are adding a couple more degree paths in addition to the BA and BS degrees they had already added.
Roseman, the school in Nevada, changed their name at least once.
And the Philadelphia College of Pharmacy did the same thing 22 years ago, adding a Sciences first and a University later while dropping the pharmacy name altogether.
It's your move, Albany College of Pharmacy...
This seems to be a trend now, adding other health degrees such as PA, nursing, optometry, PT, dental hygienist. Anything they can think of to get more easy money.
What does the name change have to do with it being shut down? Sorry, I am missing the connection.
They were a private college of pharmacy. But they kept increasing their tuition and another more affordable pharmacy program was added across the river at SIU. Applicants decreased more and more so they added BA and BS programs to fill seats.
The old name doesn't make much sense if you are not focusing on pharmacy moving forward so they changed it. And added more degree options. They couldn't survive if they didn't broaden the curriculum.

They also increased the length of the program by 1 year. I heard admissions had declined, but I had no idea that it was on the verge of shutting down with pharmacy alone. Keep in mind that for years it was a single major school, so if you didn't make it (yes there were some back in the day) you would have to transfer out of the school. Wow. Thanks for explaining.They were a private college of pharmacy. But they kept increasing their tuition and another more affordable pharmacy program was added across the river at SIU.

They need to shut down more schools especially ones that let this one graduate
Will I get fired for this? (link)
LMAO the stupidity. BeCaUsE tHeY dO iT tOo!
And this the same lameit subreddit where people told a pharmacist to mind his own beeswax (basically calling him a narc) because some dip**** manager let a tech immunize him (guess it depends if the tech is authorized to do it or not). Cutting corners can evince a lack of proper judgment in general
The best part is the other pharmacist was there so that top mind tech or the soon-to-be-fired pharmacist coulda asked the other pharmacist to check DUR
Then again if this was limp-wristed Walmart might just get a slap on the wrist and a stern warning.

At Kroger, it's even printed out plain as day on every single RDAC you print out, that you cannot give you RDAC to someone else, which would result in serious consequences.

I heard about pharmacists getting in trouble for this when I worked at CVS and I never understood why anyone would do it. It saves perhaps two seconds and six steps?
He shouldn't lose his job over it. I am not condoning it but the chains emphasis on speed and metrics invites us to cut corners.Everyone knows
chains order meds with different NDCs and changing an NDC takes extra time .Do you sometimes give meds that dont have the exact NDC?Count me guilty and dont give me that that BS about a recall.Do you mix different NDCs or just stare at old partial bottles on the shelf until they outdate.

No, changing an NDC takes seconds as well.

I don’t get it. It’s the pharmacist responsibility to check the DUR, not the tech. Is this person a new grad, or a grad intern. If he or she is a grad intern, slap on wrist. New grad, probably pink slip/fired

Nah, Xzibit is the dean of West Coast school of Pharmacy

At West Coast SOP , can you get a dual degree PharmD/ B.S. Pimpology? The B.S. probably pays better and is less exploitative.

I would rather renovate or pimp out cars than work as a pharmacist
Lol look what I got in the mail.
a) I didn’t know this school was so jesus-ey
b) I half expected a coupon code for the 12% off lololol

And that letter or brochure they sent you is against Bible principles because the letter is using God’s name in vain and trying to make a profit from using God’s name

AMEN!
Why are they celebrating the 26th anniversary so much? That seems like such a strange milestone, unless they just do it every year.
lol I just noticed that, hahah what the hell, I mean H-E-double-hockey-sticks
12% off?? thats nothing.. wait till its on clearance
Or their written English ability was not sufficient to understand the test.

And if 11 students from one class are flunking out, something's gone wrong somewhere.
God's call is to pay 200k to some for profit pharmacy school and waste 3 years of your life??
but what killed me was that those students called the local media.
26th anniversary of (US oriented and listing some video game releases):
- Tonya Harding's ex-husband ordering a hit on Nancy Kerrigan
- Kurt Cobain dying
- OJ murdering Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman
- Knicks big-time choking game 7 of the NBA Finals (John Starks 0-11 from 3, 2-18 FG)
- Lion King
- First time in 40 years Republicans controlled both houses of Congress
- Release of Super Metroid, Earthbound, Donkey Kong Country, Final Fantasy VI
Seems extremely unlikely. STLCOP is one of the oldest and biggest pharmacy schools in the nation. They have been expanding since the 90's, and the name change is just a late catch-up.
Haha, it just to be unofficially known as St. Louis College of Pharmacy & Nursing, because they had a deal with another university, and their nursing students all came to STLCOP to take their basic science classes.
- I graduated from pharmacy school
What's wrong at MCPHS school?
it's was sad that things came to those former students needing to call the media. But I understand why they had to do that.
CA BOP recently posted the 2020 exam results.
CHSU had a 42.6% pass rate for the CPJE and they still want to reapply for accreditation. They really need to focus on helping their P2-P4 students bring that up before starting a new cohort.

Wow that’s terrible.
And wow, is the CPJE now an actual/real exam that requires effort to pass? What a thought. I should look at old stats, but I swear anything < 80% was “bad”
Looks like West Coast needs to be shut down,
If these new schools were smart, they’d spend a boat load on exam prep knowing these stats are public and reported.
Or maybe they did and this was the result.

The numbers are pretty interesting for those of us who live in CA. Looks like the smartest students are choosing cheaper state schools, UCSF and UCSD. USC has a tremendous network in California, although I don't know how one can attend pharmacy school paying 60K per year tuition.
The weakest links are CA Health Sci, West Coast, and Keck- they are a disgrace. How do you graduate students of this caliber?
I am actually really surprised by NorthState, and to some extent by Ketchum and Chapman.

I've met their students, I am not surprised.
Cheaper state schools have always been preferred since dinosaurs roamed the earth.
I actually welcome the opening of UCI’s SOP, you’re going to see a UC sweep for the top 3 and further devaluation on the bottom end.
By the way, I reread this entire thread start to finish, it’s one of my favorites.
I saw the faculty that UCI was able to attract, I am sure they will be a decent school. However with Chapman and Ketchum already in OC; and AUHS (Long Beach) in the process of conduction their "experiment", the pharmacy landscape in Orange County is looking bleak. Glad that I am not looking for a job there!
I don't see devaluation leading to shutting down of any schools any time soon.
Oh they won’t close, so long as moral hazard exists with student loans and repayment plans. And I don’t blame the incoming students, either. Borrow $500k for a 25% chance at making $100k a year, and if you fail, you’re legally allowed to pay zero? I’d take those chances on those terms.
I was thinking employers would be the ones holding the line, and we already are, for the most part.
