Here is application information for the Doctor of Pharmacy Program. Hampton University Pre-professional Pharmacy students are encouraged to apply by January 13, 2020.

To apply complete the following steps:

1. Complete the Pharmacy College Admissions Test (PCAT) and obtain a preferred minimum composite percentile rank of 50 or higher
2. Submit the required School of Pharmacy Application Supplement
3. Submit a Hampton University unofficial transcript (Official Transcripts are required for applicants who apply via PharmCAS).
4. Two (2) Letters of Recommendation using the SOP Recommendation Form.
5. Apply for Financial Aid by February 1.

Students may complete the prerequisite courses at another institution, transfer into the professional program and complete four years of study leading to the Doctor of Pharmacy degree.  The content and comprehensiveness of the prerequisite courses must be comparable to the pre-pharmacy courses offered at Hampton University.

To be considered for admission, a transfer student must have a minimum overall GPA of 2.75, a recent PCAT (within the last 24 months) with a minimum preferred composite percentile score of 50 or higher, an on-site interview and a high degree of professionalism are required for admission to the professional school. Students following academic tracks other than pre-pharmacy at Hampton University may also apply to the Pharm.D. program, provided they meet the requirements for submitting an application.

Once accepted into the School of Pharmacy, students must successfully complete the professional program to earn a Doctor of Pharmacy degree.  The Pharm.D. degree is not a graduate degree, but is a professional degree, and is the only degree which will allow the graduate to become a licensed, practicing pharmacist.  Students may not sit for the pharmacy licensing examination until they complete the full four-year professional curriculum and earn a Pharm.D. degree.

1. Complete the Pharmacy College Admissions Test (PCAT) and obtain a preferred minimum composite percentile rank of 50 or higher
