Im a senior in high school, so please just let me kno if this is stupid, or not possible::
I got into a 6 year pharmacy program in philadelphia, which i really want to go to, but the problem is that it is kinda pricey and its far- my parents want me closer to home. My choices right now are either USP or the University of Maryland-College Park. However, I wanted to finish up with pharmacy in 6 years, and i kno that there is no way college park is going to let me do that (I asked).
So could go to USP and stay in the program for 2 years (the pre-pharm) and then apply/transfer to the Pharmacy School in Maryland? Since im a resident, the price is half of what i would be paying at USP..
SO basically my question is:
1) Is it possible to do this?
2) How realisitic is this? Is maryland a hard pharmacy school to get into? what are their requirements in terms of PCAT scores, gpa, extracurriculars...
I only have abt a week before i have to mail my decision in, so any feedback on this would be great! And please let me know is this whole idea is idiotic lol.
