Just for fun, how many people know that the ACPE accredits one international pharmacy school called Lebanese American University School of Pharmacy. This school is even fully accredited.
Sorry for kinda going off topic but consider this fact for fun. 😀

Even more interesting facts as claimed by in their website

The passing rate of LAU pharmacy students who sat for the NAPLEX has been 100% every year since 2002. In May 2007, our graduates passed the exam with an average score of 107.67. The U.S. national average is 89.95.
 
I've never heard of this school. Maybe this question is dumb, I could probably google it, but is it in Lebanon or in America? And what language are the classes given in? Bachelors or Pharm.D.? Sounds interesting. . .
 
Oh yea, I knew about that. One of the pharmacists I work with graduated from that university. If he works tonight, I'll ask him about the language question.
 
I looked on the website, "Instruction is in English"
 
It looks like it would be difficult for anyone wanting a traditional pharmacy program to get into. They offer Bachelors and Pharm.D. But if you want to get into the Pharm.D. program, they want you to have a bachelors in pharmacy which hasn't been available in the US for a while. Although they claim to allow for "special circumstances". It just sounds like we would all be starting out at a disadvantage there.
 
That one poster was correct - instruction is in English. Also, it is in Lebanon.
