Early Admission Program

The Early Admission Program (EAP) through the OSU College of Pharmacy is designed for students who are interested in pursuing a Doctor of Pharmacy (Pharm.D.) degree. The EAP requires full-time attendance at OSU throughout the pre-pharmacy and Pharm.D. programs. EAP students are required to maintain a minimum GPA and meet other academic requirements. Early admission is a great opportunity for you to complete the pre-pharmacy requirements at OSU and seamlessly transition into the professional program.
