Pharmacy


Two-Plus-Four Program

Students directly admitted to the Ernest Mario School of Pharmacy may spend the first two years of the six-year pharmacy doctorate program at the Newark College of Arts and Sciences. The last four years are taken at the Ernest Mario School of Pharmacy, located on the Busch campus in Piscataway, New Jersey. A transfer to the Ernest Mario School of Pharmacy is possible if the student satisfactorily meets the standards established by the school.

Pharmacy students in the Two-Plus-Four program must consult the prepharmacy adviser for advisement and preparation for a transfer to the Ernest Mario School of Pharmacy at the end of their second year in Newark.

Prepharmacy Transfers

Students admitted to the Newark College of Arts and Sciences may apply to transfer to the Ernest Mario School of Pharmacy through the admissions office at the end of their sophomore year, but such admissions are extremely limited. Only students with outstanding academic credentials who have completed those courses required of the Two-Plus-Four students in the first two years of their college experience should apply to the Ernest Mario School of Pharmacy.

Students seeking admission to the Ernest Mario School of Pharmacy must submit a school-to-school application online prior to May 15.

For further information on either program, students may contact the Office of Academic Services, 312 Hill Hall, Newark Campus.
