Acceptance to The University of Findlay is required so that your prior coursework can be evaluated by our Registrar’s Office.  The College of Pharmacy will use this evaluation to predict where you may fit within the first two years of our program. Very few students have transferred in all pre-professional courses and are ready to begin our third year.

Please note that only years 5 & 6 of our program are considered graduate level. 

STEP 2. Apply to the College of Pharmacy

Once accepted to The University of Findlay, your admissions information will be reviewed. Should you meet our minimum qualifications, a College of Pharmacy application will be sent to you. Applications deadlines for fall are April 20 and October 20 for spring. The application is returned to the Office of Undergraduate Admissions.

STEP 3. Interview with a College of Pharmacy Representative

Only select students will be invited to interview.  The in-person interview is mandatory for all students who wish to have their application considered further.  The opportunity to interview will be based on your completed Pharmacy application, UF application, transcripts and test scores.  Interviews for transfer students will be set up individually most likely in December and May.

On your interview day, you will be asked to write a short essay and will interview, one-on-one, with a College of Pharmacy faculty member or administrator.  Each interview will be approximately 30 minutes in length and is an important part of the admission decision Writing materials for the essay will be furnished.  The only item you will need to bring is a government-issued photo ID, such as a driver’s license.
