no... but it sounds interesting - Does this mean you could be international and come to UF or... you could go to UF, and do an internship in another country?

hi, above!
the International PharmD program is a 3-yr program for foreign pharmacists (sometimes they refer to it as the Non-traditional PharmD). there are really not much of countries who offer PharmD, so the goal of UF is to educate and train foreign pharmacists to the level of the traditional Doctor of Pharmacy. i was just wondering if it's accredited... i mean, i am not sure if those who graduated from that program are eligible to take the licensure exam.
I'm not quite sure of the accreditation although I'm leaning towards yes (check the ACPE website). I know that some of the classes that International PharmD's take are the same as traditional students. Last semester we had a few international students in a class with us. I looked at the website and it appears that they only accept 5 students per year.
Good luck!

Hi,
Ya they accept International students, but the chances of getting into it is very tough. For this 2010 cycle, 2 of my frnds got rejected. I am applying for 2011 cycle.
