Program Description The University of Kansas (KU) School of Pharmacy is a world-class teaching and research institution founded in 1885 and a member of the prestigious American Association of Universities (AAU). The KU School of Pharmacy ranks in the top 20% of schools of pharmacy according to US News and World Report and has consistently been a top 10 school in National Institutes of Health funding for over two decades. The graduating class of 2022 achieved a 99% first-time pass rate on the North American Pharmacists Licensure Exam (NAPLEX) and 99% on the Multistate Pharmacy Jurisprudence Examination (MPJE). We educate researchers who help solve the world’s most pressing issues in healthcare. Our rich tradition, combined with a collaborative relationship between our Pharm.D. and research programs, sets us apart from other schools. KU students learn from many of the 400+ faculty and clinical preceptors, representing a vast array of practice settings and clinical expertise. Students also learn the basic science principles of drug therapy from world–renowned researchers involved in the discovery of 24 marketed drugs. Our students graduate with a broad understanding of pharmacy, from discovery and formulation to delivery. Students enter our professional program after completing two years of pre-pharmacy coursework. The KU School of Pharmacy is one school, with a presence on three campuses, Lawrence, KU Medical Center in Wichita and KU Medical Center in Kansas City. Approximately three quarters of a million dollars of scholarship money is awarded annually to pharmacy students. Reduced out-of-state tuition is available for qualified applicants.
