I understand how accreditation works, thus why I said opening an unaccredited school and graduating from a poorly ranked, newly accredited school. My point is still valid. Look at the trends in pharmacy. Jobs are harder to come by, so no the field is not growing. This is do mostly to our economy as a whole. So hostpitals matching for residencies or employers offering the coveted 100k starting salaries are going to see a bunch of applications from top ten schools that have been accredited since 1880 and then... Marshall???
I am just saying that going to one of these new school trying to open just to capitalize on the influx of pharmacy student prospects will close a lot of doors. Better than nothing, but going to a respected accredited school is a much much better choice (if you have the choice).
just food for thought. PharmD = Job is in the past.
Well qualified PharmD = Job nowadays and you may want to keep that in mind while considering schools.
