I'm starting to prepare myself for college, yet although i'm just an incoming sophomore my family is really tight up on this kind of stuff, my cousin got accepted to Michigan University during her Junior year and now i'm the next one.

My plan is to take Pre-pharmacy then pharmD. But I know some UC's only take 4years course to take PharmD, and not pre-pharmacy. So anyone know any colleges that do Pre-pharmacy/PharmD.

I only know University Of Pacific, but i'm trying to get more choices. Thanks and I appreciate it.

I'm not really sure what PharmD is, but UGA offers pre-pharmacy *shrug* Honestly I'm not really sure why you'd want to come here if you're not from GA, but it is a pretty good school.

Ok, so apparently UGA had a really good pharmacy school...98% pass rate on the exam. But there's a national scandal involving the head pharm professor having illegally distributed questions, so while it's still a good school, it's not less impressive and definitely has a seriously tarnished image.

Oh no, it's cool. I'm majoring in English right now, but frankly I don't want to major in English, so I'll be changing it to, er, something as soon as I figure out what that something is.

REALLY helpful for planning.
List of accredited schools

Yeah, the only one I thought of was the University of the Pacific. But if you apply there, watch out - the acceptance rate for their accelerated Pre-Pharm college is under 25%. Talk to your school counselor, but take as many AP science courses as you can, job shadow pharmacists/medical field professionals, and volunteer at hospitals and the like as much as you can. (:
