The first two years of study for the Pharmacy program take place at Saint Joseph’s College, while the final four years take place at the Massachusetts College of Pharmacy & Health Sciences.

Up to ten (10) qualified Saint Joseph’s students are accepted into the third year of the Pharmacy Program. Saint Joseph’s Pre-Pharmacy students must achieve at least a 3.2 cumulative grade point average (on a scale of 4.0) for all course work, with no grades below C and no repeats, and earn a score of 420 on the Pharmacy College Admission Test (PCAT).

Students who successfully complete the six-year program receive the degree of Doctor of Pharmacy from the Massachusetts College of Pharmacy & Health Sciences.

Note: For the Pre-Pharmacy Program which prepares students interested in attending a pharmacy school other than Massachusetts College of Pharmacy & Health Sciences, see the section in Biology, Pre-Pharmacy with 4-year plan.
