Does anyone have any info of the LECOM pharmacy campus in Florida? Or if there is even a LECOM pharmacy campus is florida?
 
I first heard about a new LECOM branch campus in Bradenton Florida through my health careers advising office at UCF. 2007 will be the 1st year open & according to Pharmcas they will be taking 78 people. You still apply through Pharmcas to LECOM. It's not a 3 year program like the main campus in Lake Erie, it's a 4 year satelite program.
Lecom's website is: http://www.lecom.edu/pharm/

Where do you live? Are you in Florida?
If your not familiar with this area, Bradenton, Florida is gorgeous. The campus is in a really nice, clean area. It would be a great place to live.
 
Hey thanks for all the good info I go to UCF right now sounds like you do to or maybe a school around orlando. Your right there is one going to be a LECOM campus in florida i called to find out.
 
Cool! Go UCF! I just graduated in August, but I'm still hanging around to finish up an economics requirment for Nova. Are you applying this year to all the Florida schools? Have you taken the Pcat? I'm scehduled to take it this Oct. on campus.

If your talking about PBA, it is a Christian based school. So there is a religious presence, if you can't or don't want to hear about it then this school might deter you. Once you pass through orientation, I would say its almost bussiness as usual as probably any other school. You do have a chapel and community service requirement.
 
Sound like fun to me. How many hours of community service do you have to do? Is chapel just going to church on Sunday as usual or do you have specific religion classes to take?
