    While our preferred GPA is a 2.7, as calculated by PharmCAS, we strongly encourage applicants below a 2.7 to apply. The WSU PharmD program reviews applications through a holistic admission process to assess your strengths beyond GPA. Acceptable courses must be letter graded on a 4.0 scale. 

    Prerequisites should be completed during or after the 2018-2019 academic year. Exceptions may be considered for extenuating circumstances or work in scientific fields.

    All prerequisite courses must be completed with a C- (1.7) or higher. Courses that are repeated will be considered using the highest grade earned. However, all course attempts may be factored into the overall GPA calculated by PharmCAS.

    Washington state residency is not required for admission. WSU also participates in WICHE and welcomes applicants receiving WICHE support. WSU offers reduced tuition for WICHE approved students from Alaska, Nevada, Guam, and the Northern Mariana Islands.

    Our pharmacy school distinguishes itself by offering non-resident tuition that is more affordable than the resident and non-resident tuition at numerous other U.S. pharmacy schools.

    Residents of other states may be eligible to apply for Washington state residency after establishing a domicile in the state of Washington for 12 consecutive months. By establishing Washington residency, you will be charged the resident tuition rate for your second through fourth year in pharmacy school. More information regarding establishing residency can be found at http://residency.wsu.edu/.
