The PSAR
There are currently 83 pharmacy schools in the United States. Pharmacy School Admission Requirements, published every year by the Association of American of Colleges of Pharmacy (AACP) and affectionately called the "PSAR," provides comprehensive information on all these schools.
By the Book
When it comes to pharmacy school admissions, "doing it by the book" refers to the PSAR. The information provided in this book comes from the schools themselves. The first part of the PSAR includes profiles of all the pharmacy schools in the U.S. The second section includes tables detailing applicant profiles, requirements, programs offered, and more. Every school profiled in the PSAR contains the following entries:
- General Information
- Curriculum
- Requirements
- Deadlines
- Tuition
- Contact
- Information
