St Louis College of Pharmacy

Founded in 1864, St. Louis College of Pharmacy is one of the oldest colleges of pharmacy in the nation and consistently graduates one of the largest classes of new pharmacists in the U.S. The College admits students directly from high school, and the six-year curriculum integrates the liberal arts and sciences with a professional program leading to a Doctor of Pharmacy (Pharm.D.) degree. \r\n\r\nThe College is a private, nonsectarian school with more than 1,200 students from 25 states. St. Louis College of Pharmacy’s 6,300 alumni live in all 50 states and 13 different countries, and approximately 72% of St. Louis-area pharmacists are College graduates. \r\n\r\nThe St. Louis College of Pharmacy campus is located in the city’s Central West End, surrounded by the nationally recognized medical community of Barnes-Jewish Hospital, Washington University School of Medicine, Siteman Cancer Center, and St. Louis Children’s Hospital. The campus is also one block from Forest Park, with its 1,300 acres of green space, tennis courts, ice-skating rink, golf course, and world-class museums, zoo, outdoor opera theater, and science center. Students at the College are near the cultural and entertainment scene of St. Louis on a safe, 5-acre campus within walking distance of public transportation.\r\n\r\nNearly 100% of students receive one or more job offers by the time they graduate, and starting salaries for College graduates are as high as $90,000 or more. The College prepares its students to practice in all fields of pharmacy: community or hospital pharmacy, managed care, consultant pharmacy, the pharmaceutical industry, military, academia, or pharmacy associations. Nearly three out of four practicing pharmacists in the St. Louis region are graduates of the College.
