REVIEWS
Read What Students Are SayingAs a 1st year, a lot of what is being covered right now is review. However, since pharmacy is the only major, everything taught here has a pharmacy spin on it. This helps me realize that I am actually at school to become a pharmacist. I feel like we are learning a lot, and at a good pace.
Alexis from Murrieta, CA
Located in the heart of the Central West End, Saint Louis College of Pharmacy cultivates all aspects of a traditional and modern college atmosphere into its diverse campus. The advanced 7-year program provides students with a chance at earning their Bachelors of Science degree before advancing onward to earning a Doctorate of Pharmacy degree, while getting the chance to apply knowledge into rotations, internships, and part-time jobs. This program is recommended for anyone interested in pursuing an advanced degree in the pharmaceutical field, dedicate their lives to serving others, and overall striving to achieve the best in their field.
Bobbie from Saint Louis, MO
St. Louis College of Pharmacy is one of the best pharmacy schools in the nation. It is very competitive and isn't like your average college. It's small, and the learning is very hands on.
HALLIE from ST LOUIS, MO
STLCOP is a manageable challenge. You have to work to get your grades, but the feeling of working for them and then getting them is rewarding. Don't consider asking for help a sign of weakness, it's a hard program and everyone knows that.
Alexa from Junction City, KS
I feel that I made the perfect decision when I decided to attend the St. Louis College of Pharmacy. Everyone here is extremely friendly, and help all around you from the staff and upperclassmen. The good thing is that since everyone here is trying to become a pharmacist, we all know what each of us is going through.
