Hello,

I was wondering if there are any three year pharmacy programs out there. I will be graduating with a degree in computer science this school year and will be taking prequisite classes for pharmacy after graduation. Since these prerequisite classes take at least one year for me, I hope there are any three year pharmacy programs (provided that they admit me) to shorten the time needed to graduate with a pharmacy degree. Thanks in advance.

Please search the forum and read the FAQ. You'll find your answer by doing both. 😉

South University has a 3-yr Pharmacy Program. It's a quarter system and is in session year round.
I suggest talking to some current or former students personally before you decide on a pharmacy school.
Many places are not what they seem or promise to be when recruiting or interviewing prospective students.
I've heard lots of sad, unbelievable stories about students being continually disrespected and treated unprofessionally by faculty at one place in particular.
It's often hard to really get the message across to someone that just wants to be accepted to a program somewhere that there may be certain schools that will make your life miserable way above and beyond the normal, difficult academic program.
Furthermore, students may be afraid of retaliation if they post their true feelings or factual events on forums such as these. Yes, it's true, there are some professors that will retaliate and intimidate students if they publisize facts about their school.
Good luck hunting a school.
I hope you will find one you can be proud of.

My advice if you are searching for 3 year programs, is research the curriculum/faculty. 3 year programs are not for everyone. Some schools will sacrifice the quality of your education, with quantity. You don't want that.

Btw, i attend a 3 year program. At USN, curriculum is tough, but faculty more than makes up for it.

In case you have yet to find it, here is a post provided by the nice Administrators of SDN indicating 3-year programs:
