School of Pharmacy

Founded in 1878, the School of Pharmacy is the oldest of the University's schools of the health professions. Since its inception, the School of Pharmacy has been at the forefront of changes in pharmacy education. Today, the School offers a Doctor of Pharmacy (PharmD) degree, a six-year program configured in a course of study requiring two years (62 credits) of pre-professional courses taken during the freshman and sophomore years followed by four years in the School of Pharmacy's professional program.

The professional curriculum emphasizes problem solving and critical thinking, blending classroom and laboratory learning with clinical practice experiences. As students progress through the curriculum they develop the knowledge, skills, and attitudes required to deliver pharmaceutical care to their patients.

The school's mission is to be a nationally recognized leader of the profession of pharmacy by virtue of the excellence of the school's educational, research, and pharmaceutical care programs.

The University of Pittsburgh School of Pharmacy is accredited by the American Council on Pharmaceutical Education, 311 West Superior Street, Suite 512, Chicago, IL 60610, (312) 664-3575, (800) 533-3606 (fax, 312-664-4652), and is a member of the American Association of Colleges of Pharmacy.

Admissions Requirements & Application Deadlines

Applicants for admission to the School of Pharmacy must be eligible for admission to the University and have successfully completed, or be in the process of completing, all prerequisite mathematics and science subjects, as noted below, no later than the Spring Term of the year of admission. All other pre-professional courses should be completed no later than the first day of the Fall Term of admission. All courses must be taken for a letter grade.

The professional curriculum has a lock-step design, in which courses taught in the first-professional year are prerequisite to courses in the second year, second year courses are prerequisite to those taught in third year, and so forth. Consequently, the curriculum is not designed to accommodate those who have fulfilled portions of the course requirements at other pharmacy schools. The school does not admit students to advanced standing because they have completed portions of the professional course requirements at other colleges or universities.

The Admissions Committee will consider applicants who have successfully completed the pre-professional courses in an accredited college or university in the United States.

The application deadline for admission to the program is March 1.

Pre-professional Course Requirements:

Freshman Studies, one credit, is recommended for University of Pittsburgh freshmen.

+At least six credits must be earned in the humanities and six credits in the social sciences. A course in public speaking is recommended.

English Language Requirement

Academic success is strongly dependent upon the ability to communicate well in English. Listening, speaking, reading, and writing proficiency must be well developed in order to succeed in the curriculum. Such proficiency is much greater than that required for ordinary everyday living. Therefore, every effort should be made to perfect English proficiency prior to entering the University.

Non-native English speaking applicants to the professional program are required to provide evidence of their proficiency in the English language by completing the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) or the Michigan English Language Assessment Battery (MELAB) and the Test of Spoken English (TSE). Official TOEFL results should be sent directly to the University of Pittsburgh by the Educational Testing Service. The institutional code for the University of Pittsburgh is 2927 and the department code for Pharmacy is 47.

Applicants should register to take these exams by October 1 so the test results are received by the March 1 deadline. For more information about TOEFL and TSE, call the Educational Testing Service at (609) 771-7760. MELAB information is available from the English Language Institute at (313) 764-2416 (http://www.lsa.umich.edu/eli /melab.htm). See also of this bulletin, English Language Proficiency Requirements, for more information.

Computer Competency

All students should be able to utilize word processing and spreadsheet software, the University's E-mail system, and the World Wide Web. Students unfamiliar with these basic computer applications should complete a computer literacy course.

Other requirements for admission depend on the admission option under which a student applies. The options are detailed in the next section.

Admission Options

The School of Pharmacy admits students to its program under one of two admission statuses - conditional or open. The two admission statuses and their relevant requirements are detailed below:

Conditional Admission

Conditional admission status is offered to select freshman students who enroll at one of the University of Pittsburgh campuses. High school students who rank in the upper 10% of their graduating class, score 1100 or higher on the Scholastic Achievement Test (SAT) with a minimum of 550 in the Math section, and who specify Pharmacy on the application, are eligible for this type of admission. Students should first submit an application to the University of Pittsburgh; Office of Admissions and Financial Aid; Bruce Hall, Second Floor; Pittsburgh, PA 15260, indicating an interest in studying pharmacy. Offers for conditional admission to the School of Pharmacy will be extended to qualified students as applications are received. Since only one half of the spaces in the pharmacy class will be allocated to this type of admission, the number of offers will be limited. Once the allotted slots are filled, no more offers will be extended. Students interested in taking advantage of this type of admission are urged to apply early, as these spaces are typically filled before December 15.

Conditional status students are expected to perform well in their pre-professional courses. In order to be guaranteed admission to the School of Pharmacy, students must earn an overall GPA of 3.00 or greater and a 3.00 QPA in the required math and science courses, without repeating any courses or earning any grade below C. Students who meet these performance criteria will be admitted, provided they complete the requirements for admission to the school and submit a Supplemental School of Pharmacy Application before the March 1 deadline. See Application Procedure — Conditionally Admitted Students below.

Open Admission

Qualified University of Pittsburgh students and students attending other universities are encouraged to apply to the School of Pharmacy. The minimum requirements for admission to the School of Pharmacy's professional program are: 1) Completion of the pre-pharmacy course requirements; 2) Quality point average of 2.75; and 3) Completion of a Supplemental School of Pharmacy Application.

In previous years, approximately 10% to 20% of the class were comprised of students who completed their pre-professional courses at other colleges and universities.

Application Procedure

The application procedure to the School of Pharmacy varies according to whether the student is a conditionally admitted student, a University of Pittsburgh student who is applying for open admission, or a transfer student from another University.

Conditionally Admitted Students

Students who have successfully completed the pre-professional requirements and the conditions outlined in their letters of acceptance may apply to transfer to the School of Pharmacy by completing a Supplemental School of Pharmacy Application. The Supplemental Application and a copy of grade reports through the Fall Term of the second pre-professional year (or an unofficial transcript) should be returned to the Office of the Dean, 1104 Salk Hall, postmarked no later than March 1 to be considered for fall admission. Supplemental School of Pharmacy Application materials may be obtained from
the academic advisor, or by calling or visiting the Office of the Dean; 1104 Salk Hall; Pittsburgh, PA 15261; (412) 648-8579.

University of Pittsburgh Students

University of Pittsburgh students may apply to transfer to the School of Pharmacy by completing a Supplemental School of Pharmacy Application. The Supplemental Application and a copy of grade reports through the Fall Term of the second pre-professional year (or an unofficial transcript) should be returned to the Office of the Dean, 1104 Salk Hall, postmarked no later than March 1 to be considered for fall admission. Supplemental School of Pharmacy Application materials may be obtained from the academic advisor, or by calling or visiting the Office of the Dean, 1104 Salk Hall, Pittsburgh, PA 15261, (412) 648-8579.

Transfer Applicants

Students attending other universities and colleges are encouraged to apply to the School of Pharmacy. Students should first contact the Office of Admissions and Financial Aid, 4227 Fifth Avenue, Pittsburgh, PA 15213, (412) 624-7488 to obtain a transfer application. After submitting a non-refundable $35 application fee and completing the application, transfer students who meet the minimum requirements outlined above will receive a Supplemental School of Pharmacy Application. The Supplemental Application and a copy of grade reports through the Fall Term of the second pre-professional year (or an unofficial transcript) should be returned to the Office of the Dean, 1104 Salk Hall, postmarked no later than March 1 to be considered for Fall admission.

Evaluation of Applicants

The Admissions Committee of the School of Pharmacy makes its decisions after reviewing all of the information submitted by the applicant. The Admissions Committee normally completes its work at the end of March; applicants will be notified beginning April 1 of the Committee's decision.

The School accepts students who have a variety of career expectations and educational experiences. Every effort is made to encourage and recruit students with diverse cultural, economic, and social backgrounds. Sound scholarship is important, but other qualities may outweigh very high grades or attendance at prestigious universities. In addition to intellectual promise, the committee is impressed by evidence that the candidate functions well in the community, is sincerely motivated, communicates well, and gives evidence of leadership ability.

Tuition Deposit

Upon acceptance, University of Pittsburgh students must reserve their space in the incoming class by payment of a non-refundable $100 deposit, which will be applied toward the entering term's tuition. Students accepted for admission from schools other than the University of Pittsburgh will be required to submit a non-refundable deposit of $500 to reserve a space in the class.

Financial Assistance: University-Wide and School-Specific

The University offers four types of financial aid: scholarships, grants-in-aid, tuition loans, and student employment. In making awards, the University Committee on Scholarships and Student Aid will consider, on a comparative basis, the scholastic attainment, character, and leadership potential of each applicant. Stipends are established in accord with individual financial circumstances. Additional information about financial aid can be obtained by calling the Office of Admissions and Financial Aid at (412) 624-PITT, by E-mail oafa+@pitt.edu, or on the Web: (http://www.pitt.edu/~oafa/ ). See also the section on Financial Aid.

Federal and state grants and scholarships, although widely available, are generally reserved for the most economically disadvantaged students. Students should investigate with the University of Pittsburgh's financial advisors their eligibility for federal and state programs. The relevant federal programs are:

The University's financial advisors are the best source of information about local grants or scholarships that go beyond federal and state programs. Students are encouraged to look outside of the health professions for additional support. Students may be able to compete successfully for economically or academically awarded scholarships from private groups and associations.

Students in the School of Pharmacy are eligible to apply for a number of general scholarships and loan funds provided through the generosity of the school's alumni and friends. These are described in detail on the school's Web site: http://www/pharmacy.pitt.edu/.

Academic and Professional Standards

The following sections detail the School of Pharmacy's academic and professional standards.

Academic Integrity

School of Pharmacy students are responsible for upholding the standards of behavior outlined in the University's Guidelines on Academic Integrity (http://www.pitt.edu/~graduate/ail.html), the University's policy on sexual harassment, and other policies related to student behavior.

Enrollment in the School of Pharmacy carries with it obligations of conduct within and outside of the classroom. Professional students are expected to have the highest standards of personal integrity and conduct themselves in a manner that is a credit to themselves, the school, and the profession.

Each year, students will be asked to sign a copy of the University of Pittsburgh School of Pharmacy Code of Conduct that reaffirms their commitment to ethical and professional behavior. Details of the Code are outlined on the school's Web site (http://www.pharmacy.pitt.edu).

Grading System

Doctor of Pharmacy students are subject to the provisions of the Guidelines and Regulations for the Promotion of Students in force at the time. All students will be given a copy of these guidelines and regulations upon entry into the program.

With the exception of experiential learning courses, all courses in the School of Pharmacy are graded on an A, B, C, D, or F basis. Experiential learning courses are graded on a satisfactory, unsatisfactory, or honors basis (H/S/U). See University policy on the grading system for first-professional programs at http://www.pitt.edu/HOME/PP/policies/09/09-01-01.html.

Dean's List

To be placed on the School of Pharmacy Dean's List, a student must have earned a term quality point average of 3.25 or greater. The academic achievement of these students is recognized with a congratulatory letter from the dean.

Immunization Policy

The University requires the immunization of all incoming freshmen against measles, mumps, and rubella, as a condition of attendance at the University of Pittsburgh. Incoming freshmen must provide to the University Student Health Service documentation of immunization that includes the month, day, and year that the immunizations were administered. Completed immunization forms must be kept on file in the Student Health Service.

Exemptions may be granted based on a written statement from a physician that the immunization may be detrimental to the health of the student, or on a student's objection to immunization on religious grounds, or on the basis of a strong moral or ethical conviction, similar to a religious belief. However, if an outbreak of measles, mumps, or rubella occurs, the State Health Department may require the school to exclude from classes students who do not provide proof of immunity to these diseases.

The School of Pharmacy requires proof of immunization against measles, mumps, rubella, chicken pox, hepatitis B, tetanus, diphtheria, and polio. In addition, all students are required to provide the results of a tuberculin skin test (PPD Mantoux method) prior to enrollment and each year thereafter. With the exception of hepatitis B, students must complete all of the immunizations prior to enrollment. The first of the three immunizations for hepatitis must be completed prior to the first day of class. The entire series must be completed before the end of the first-professional year in order to enroll in the experiential learning course. The school strongly urges students to obtain health insurance coverage.

Internship

Pharmacy students who plan to complete the requirements for pharmacy licensure in Pennsylvania must complete 1500 hours of internship under the supervision of a licensed pharmacist. A maximum of 750 hours of internship credit may be gained from practical experience obtained through the school's curriculum. Students must complete the remaining hours on their own. Non-resident students should contact the board of pharmacy in their state to learn about internship requirements in their state.

Inquiries regarding qualifications for licensure in Pennsylvania should be made to: Executive Secretary, Pennsylvania State Board of Pharmacy, Box 2649, Harrisburg, PA 17105-2649 (the Web site is: http://www.dos.state.pa.us/bpoa/phadb.htm).

Experiential Learning

Experiential learning sites are located throughout Allegheny County and the state of Pennsylvania. In the first three years of the professional curriculum, students are placed at sites within a 30-mile radius of the campus. Transportation to and from experiential sites is the student's responsibility. University of Pittsburgh students can ride a Port Authority Bus at no charge anywhere in Allegheny County by showing the driver a valid and current University ID. More information about this benefit and bus schedules can be found on the University's Web site at: http://p-and-t.parktran.pitt.edu/transportation/ShuttleSchedules.html.

At present, nearly 70 percent of pharmacy students complete their fourth year clerkships at clinical sites in Allegheny County. Although every effort is made to meet individual student needs, the school cannot guarantee that students will be placed at sites near their home or campus address. Entering students should understand that they may be required to complete portions of their fourth professional year at locations other than Allegheny County. Transportation to clinical sites and housing costs are the student's responsibility. Because students are involved in a wide variety of activities during the clerkship period, a car may be a necessary resource.

Advising

Advisors in the College of Arts and Sciences Advising Center, 252 Thackeray Hall, assist pre-pharmacy students with pre-professional requirements. Questions regarding professional requirements, licensing, and career opportunities are referred to faculty or staff in the School of Pharmacy.

Once enrolled in the School of Pharmacy, students meet individually with the Director of Student Affairs to plan a course of study.

Faculty advisors are available for students who wish guidance on career decisions, advice on selection of rotations, and personal or professional problems. Student participation is voluntary, and the program is designed to be supportive and informal.

Placement

Internship positions are posted on the University's Placement Center Web site (http://www.placement.pitt.edu/). Students may learn of other intern opportunities by attending one of the many informational workshops held throughout the academic year.

The University's Placement Center facilitates placement of graduating students. Recruiters from community, institutional, government, and industrial practice settings visit the University campus during the Fall Term to discuss career opportunities in their organizations.

Degree Requirements

To earn the degree of Doctor of Pharmacy, the student must demonstrate satisfactory achievement in required course work prescribed by the curriculum (detailed below under Program Description), earning an overall QPA of 2.00 or higher. Refer to the school's Web site at http://www.pharmacy.pitt.edu/ for the guidelines for academic progress.

Special Academic Opportunities/Programs

Students in the School of Pharmacy begin their clinical experience during the first semester of the first-professional year. Their clinical experience becomes more complex as they progress in the curriculum, culminating in their last academic year. Students may select an area of practice that interests them most and complete rotations under the direction of experienced preceptors. Off-campus rotations may be arranged through the U.S. Public Health Service, the Food and Drug Administration, the pharmaceutical industry, professional associations, and a variety of non-traditional practice settings.

Research projects, ranging from molecular and basic science problems to clinical outcomes, may be completed under the guidance of a school faculty member. Research rotations are available for students interested in pursuing a graduate degree or research career.

All students are members of the Academy of Students of Pharmacy, the student branch of the American Pharmaceutical Association. There are a variety of other professional organizations that are active in the school. Students are encouraged to attend regional, state, and national professional meetings and seminars.

Tutors are available through the Rho Chi Society, pharmacy's honor society, for students who need additional help with their courses.

Program Description

The curriculum for the professional program in pharmacy leading to the PharmD degree requires 121 credits taken over the four years following the student's two pre-professional years (Note: this curriculum is subject to change):
