What's the average cost to get a Pharm D? aka Doctor of Pharmacy. I'd say give more preference to out of state tuition, since I live in Utah...and wouldn't stay here to get my Pharm D because we don't have a prestigious school.

thanks

You can refer to this - keep in mind this is the first year tuition for pharmacy schools, not including housing and living expenses. Quickly glancing through, I'm going to say that the average might be 30k a year for four years, or 120k on tuition alone. Additional costs depends on where you're living - if you choose a place like New York City, you'll end up with a higher cost of housing and food, and even transportation because you live so far. But let's just say 20k for all four years, or 140k in total.

Check this thread out. Lots of pharmacists and pharmacy students discussing their loan amounts...
