The Pharmacy College Admission Test (PCAT®) is a specialized test that helps identify qualified applicants to pharmacy colleges. It measures general academic ability and scientific knowledge necessary for the commencement of pharmaceutical education. The PCAT is constructed specifically for colleges of pharmacy.

Pharmacy is Right for Me provides students, parents, and educators with interactive tools, resources, and first-person testimonials that give insight into the exciting and diverse career opportunities that exist within the field of pharmacy.

The PCAT is optional for the 2023-2024 Admissions Cycle and may be submitted at the discretion of the applicant. For students opting to submit PCAT scores, it is preferred that the scores are within the last 3 years. Competitive PCAT scores may be used for determining merit-based scholarships upon acceptance to the USF TCOP PharmD program. Note that if planning to take the PCAT, the remaining dates are limited. Information can be found on the Pearson website.
