Hello Everyone. Anyone attending one of the two pharmacy schools right now? Or does anybody have some information about these schools? Which school do you think is better?
Here's a good measuring stick for which school to use: After loan payments would you make more money as a working pharmacist than the average master's degree graduate? Obviously as a doctorate degree holder, you should make more as a pharmacist.Hello Everyone. Anyone attending one of the two pharmacy schools right now?

But you’re still comparing a 3rd tier school to a 4th tier school. They are both bottom of the barrel schools.You can find a very good picture of the 2 schools here.
Chapman University - Pharmacy Students
Western University of Health Sciences - Pharmacy Students
Chapman would cost much more and has a low reputation while WesternU would cost less and has a higher academic reputation.
I don't know how Western is perceived elsewhere. But locally, I haven't seen any pharm school grads struggle to get a job with a Western degree. Of course, it also depends on the individual - I've seen many Western grads beat USC and UCSD grads for jobs.
Chapman is still new... having interacted with the faculty there before, I know they're trying. For now, I would still choose Western over Chapman, unless you want to finish in 3 years or live in OC and want a shorter commute.
Thank you for your reply. Were you a student at WesternU too?
