How the Campbell rate is worked out
Campbell publishes its own admissions numbers for the Class of 2027: 193 applications received, 53 enrolled. 53 divided by 193 is 27.5%. Source
The school does not publish how many offers it made, so this counts students who enrolled. The share offered a seat is somewhat higher, because some admitted applicants go elsewhere.
We only use numbers the school posts on its own site. National PharmCAS and AACP tables count applicants differently, so they are left out, and so are PCAT averages, since the PCAT was retired in January 2024.
What Campbell asks of applicants
- At least 59 prerequisite credit hours completed with a letter grade of C or higher before enrolling, a minimum 2.75 PharmCAS GPA on a 4.0 scale, and no bachelor's degree required. Source
- Prerequisites must come from an accredited U.S. school, and Canadian coursework is the only foreign coursework accepted. PharmCAS requires two letters of recommendation (up to four are reviewed), with one from a science professor and one from a pharmacist strongly recommended. Source
- Applicants with a GPA under 3.0 are encouraged to send PCAT, MCAT or DAT scores, and pharmacy work or shadowing is strongly recommended. Source
- The PCAT is no longer required, though applicants who have taken the PCAT may still submit test scores to PharmCAS. Source
- The Class of 2027 profile (October 2023) lists an early acceptance option for applicants with a 3.2 PharmCAS GPA or higher, with an automatic $10,000 to $15,000 scholarship. Source
