Moving to Pharmacy school specific discussions.

As for your question, it will be in your best interest to consider the following:

1) Regional Accreditation

2) Cost

What do you call a student who graduated top of their class at the top ranked pharmacy program and a student who graduated bottom of their class at the lowest ranked program? A pharmacist.

Go to the cheapest tuition AND cost of living program institute.

Be familiar with your debt to “job” ratio. Good luck

I have Mercer on my backup list to apply to if I don't get into my top choices these next couple weeks. It looks like a solid program and cost of living in Atlanta is sooo cheap. I have no idea what Howard is like, but I really thought Mercer would be an okay fit. I'll want to know where you choose!

As they say, Howard University is the black Harvard. I would go with that if I were you.

Best of luck.
