Prerequisite Courses
Once you have completed most of the prerequisite courses, you are ready to begin the Pharmacy School application process. While you might be missing, or in the process of completing some of the prerequisites when you apply, you must complete all prerequisites by June 30 of the year you would like to begin 91ɫƵ’s PharmD program.
GPA
The 91ɫƵ Pharmacy School requires a minimum cumulative undergraduate GPA of 2.0 on a 4.0 scale, and a minimum cumulative prerequisite GPA of 2.5 on a 4.0 scale. For the most recent cohort of students, the average cumulative GPA was 3.10 and the average prerequisite GPA was 3.20. All official transcripts that you submit with your application will be reviewed in depth to help determine your academic ability.
PCAT
Effective March 12, 2020, completion of the Pharmacy College Admission Test (PCAT) is not required, rather, it's optional. If you believe the PCAT provides evidence of your academic preparedness for the 91ɫƵ PharmD program, you are encouraged to take the PCAT and submit your scores to PharmCAS. For example, this could apply to students at or near the minimum cumulative/prerequisite GPA requirement or students who completed science prerequisite coursework more than seven years ago. 

There is no minimum PCAT score required to apply to 91ɫƵ’s Pharmacy School. PCAT scores are valid for five years, and all applicants are allowed to take the PCAT up to five times. However, 91ɫƵ’s Admissions Committee will review all of your PCAT scores (including subscores in each section), so it is best to take the PCAT only once and achieve a strong score. If you are considering retaking the PCAT, do so only if you believe you will improve your scores.
