Pre-Pharmacy Pathway
DR. KYLE STRODE, PRE-PHARMACY ADVISOR
The Pre-Pharmacy Pathway at Carroll College prepares students to apply to graduate programs in pharmacy. The Helena community provides several opportunities for students to observe professionals in the field, which is required by some programs. Pre-Pharmacy students will learn the critical thinking and leadership skills, compassion, and integrity needed to become ethical and caring pharmacists in their communities. To learn more about the Pre-Pharmacy program at Carroll College, visit: https://www.carroll.edu/pre-professional/pre-pharmacy.
Please note that completion of the Pre-Pharmacy Pathway does not guarantee that all graduate/professional admission prerequisites have been met, nor does it assure admission into a pharmacy degree program. Carroll students pursuing this pathway need to work closely with the appropriate pre-professional advisor, as well as the admission office(s) of all prospective graduate/professional programs.
