Getting Started with your Pharmacy Education

Incoming first-time college students and current SIUE students have the opportunity to earn a Doctor of Pharmacy (PharmD) degree through the SIUE School of Pharmacy (SOP) Conditional Entry Program (CEP).  CEP is an early assurance program that once accepted, students that satisfy academic & program requirements will have a space in the PharmD program reserved for them. These requirements include the submission of the requisite materials via the PharmCAS application process and the successful completion of the on-site SOP interview and writing assessment.

High School Conditional Entry Program Applicants

SIUE Student Conditional Entry Program Applicants

CEP Program Benefits

• Guaranteed interview at the SIUE SOP for students who maintain CEP standards and apply for admission to the school
• Early registration for SIUE courses
• Additional opportunities to connect with current faculty and students in the SOP
• Direct advising from the SOP including interview preparation

CEP is not the only route for admission into the PharmD program and ineligibility for CEP does not imply that a student is not qualified for SOP admission.  Other candidates for the PharmD program at SIUE are considered on a competitive basis using the traditional application process that is facilitated through PharmCAS.
