Just out of curiosity, why?

If you're interested in researching the presence of fake pharmacy degrees in the pharmaceutical work force, you might want to consider broadening your search. There's a guy working as a pharmacist on the east coast with a real pharmacy BS degree, who bought a pair of PhD's from the University Degree Program (the Romanian operation). His purchased degrees are in "Geriatric Pharmacy" and "Pharmaceutical Sciences." I think his diplomas came from "Northfield University" which was not being described as a pharmacy school.

Because I'm a pharmacy student. It is harder for me to get accepted into a credited institution that's why I'm looking for a uncredited school to enroll and hopefully after the first generation of students have graduated, pass the state board exam and the school would be accredited. Recently, College of Pharmacy in Nevada have been accredited after 3 or 4 years after starting their unaccredited program. Please help me thank you.

 

Your best bet is to check with the American Association of Colleges of Pharmacy: www.aacp.org. I doubt that you will find it easier to get accepted into a school seeking accreditation. Your best bet may be to choose a school nearby and have a heart to heart conversation with the director of admissions. Find out precisely what you will have to do to gain possible admission and go from there.

 

I agree with Dr. Justice here. You will find most of the schools to be competitive to get into whether they are in pre-candidate status or fully accredited by AACP. The best source of information is either from the school itself or alumni of the school in question. It has definitely gotten tougher to get into the programs. I had a young man who worked for me that got into the University of Oklahoma without a great GPA (or PCAT) because he applied twice and worked in the pharmacy for a couple of years. Hang in there.

 

Thanks jackjustice and timothyrph. I will try my best and apply again next year. Thank you for your personal advices I will hang in there.
