    Students are required to attend Orientation, which is held Wednesday-Friday before classes start. International Students are also required to attend the International Student Welcome Series, which is held the week before classes start.
    
    Students will be responsible for providing their own transportation throughout professional years 2-4. Transportation to and from experiential sites is the responsibility of the student. The school cannot guarantee that students will be placed in clinical rotation sites accessible from UB transportation. The City of Buffalo does have public transportation but it does not cover the entire 90 mile radius allocated for EE training sites. The EE Office cannot give site preferences to students who lack transportation. Therefore, a personally owned vehicle is the preferred mode of transportation for all students. There are transportation alternatives, but due to distances they may be expensive and the student should budget appropriately.

    P1 students are eligible for competitive scholarships, when available, and determined primarily by information in the PharmCAS application. These include one-time scholarships for non-New York State residents to help offset the cost of out-of-state tuition. After P1 year, students may obtain residency and qualify for in-state tuition. Scholarship decisions are made and conveyed during the admissions process. These scholarships are not available to international students - however, we do offer scholarships to Canadian students. Scholarship opportunities continue to be available throughout the program thanks to the generosity of alumni, friends, and various organizations/corporations.
