UTICA — Mohawk Valley Community College (MVCC) and University at Buffalo’s (UB) School of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences have signed an affiliation agreement to create a 2 + 4 undergraduate/professional school education program.
Under the plan, students would complete MVCC’s “Liberal Arts and Sciences: Mathematics and Science: Biology” degree program and then apply to and attend UB’s four-year doctor of pharmacy program, MVCC said in a news release.
This six-year program allows students to complete all of UB’s prerequisites at MVCC, though admission into UB’s program “is not guaranteed.”
Students must identify their intent to pursue this program within the first 30 credits hours taken at MVCC, maintain a 3.5 grade point average (GPA) overall in their math and science courses, submit transcripts after each year completed, and meet any additional minimum requirements that the UB Doctor of Pharmacy admissions committee establishes, per the release.
