Transfer Students

The Raabe College of Pharmacy at Ohio Northern University offers only the six-year, direct-entry, Doctor of Pharmacy (Pharm.D.) program. Most of our students are admitted from secondary schools and are here for all six years of the program, since pharmacy courses start year one.

Annually, the College of Pharmacy determines whether any space is available for transfer admissions into the first- or second-year class cohorts. If space is available, first priority for admission goes to ONU students who are applying for internal transfer. Any remaining seats would be filled by transfer applicants from outside the University.

External applicants must apply no later than April 1st with final decisions made by May 1. Any qualified applicant will be required to schedule a personal interview in order to be considered for admission.

There are no course pre-requisites for admission consideration and the PCAT is not required. Financial Aid is available to all transfer students, but grants and scholarships are restricted to those students who have not yet completed a bachelor’s degree.

SPECIAL NOTE: First- and second-year class cohorts for 2012-13 are large and there may be no available seats for transfer students beginning in fall 2013.
