Accelerated PharmD programs near NC?

[Swenis]

Hi everyone! I just registered today as I found these wonderful forums only a few days ago. I begin my two-year pre-pharm coursework in August at the University of North Carolina at Asheville, but I was wondering if anyone knows how I would go about getting into an accelerated three-year PharmD program once I begin applying? Also, does anyone know of any near NC? 😕

P.S. Sorry for the choppy layout, but I have too many quesitons 😀

you would apply to an accelerated school just like you would at any other school. The closest school to you would be the school I go to, south university.

Thanks a lot. How do you feel the South program compares to other schools (Chapel Hill, USC, MUSC, Campbell)?

It's hard to compare because I do not go to the other schools, plus we have a totally different structure than the schools you have listed. Most of our professors come from UGA and MUSC. So far, I have enjoyed my program. I wont lie to you and say it is easy, it's extreamly challenging but if it was easy I would be concerned about my school. I hope this helps!

It sounds like your school is a valid place to consider attending when I begin sending out applications next fall. Thanks for helping me out!
