This joint program permits students to earn a bachelor\u2019s degree from Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵ and a PharmD degree from Rutgers University in 7 years. At Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵ State, students major in chemistry, biochemistry, molecular biology or biology and earn approximately 100 credits in three years. Students transfer to Rutgers (New Brunswick) in their fourth year to begin the pharmacy curriculum. Approximately 20 credits from this curriculum are transferred to Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵ State to complete BS degree requirements. Admission to the program is a joint decision between the two universities and admission to Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵ does not guarantee acceptance into the program.<\/p>\n
High School Students:<\/strong>\u00a0Expected to have taken a strong, science and math based course of study that includes AP and honors courses with a GPA greater than 3.5 (overall and in science\/math). Students must also take the SAT exam and score greater than 1200 on the verbal and math sections.<\/p>\n Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵ Transfer Students:<\/strong>\u00a0Expected to have college-level GPA greater than 3.5 that includes chemistry, biology and mathematics courses. Transfer students will be required to maintain outstanding performance (greater than 3.5 GPA in required courses) for a minimum of two semesters at Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵ State prior to applying to the program. Once admitted to the program, students are expected to continue outstanding academic performance. No grade less than a B is permitted in any of the required courses (or equivalents for transfer students).<\/p>\n \n\n\n<\/p> Jim Dyer<\/a><\/p> Associate Professor, Chemistry and Biochemistry<\/p> This joint program permits students to earn a bachelor\u2019s degree from Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵ and a PharmD degree from Rutgers University in 7 years.
