Remote PharmD
Want a CU Anschutz-caliber pharmacy degree but can’t move to Denver? The remote Doctor of Pharmacy Degree may be for you.
- Receive a world-class education with stellar career outcomes.
- Learn from international experts in the field.
- Take advantage of career services, advising, and mental health services.
- Develop relationships with premiere pharmacy leaders.
- Take your PharmD classes from the safety and comfort of your own home.
- Eliminate moving costs.
- Avoid Denver cost-of-living.
- Need to stay close to home during the pandemic? All regular classes are fully online.
- Have a partner or children you don’t want to uproot with a move? Maintain consistency while pursuing your degree.
- Decide at some point that you want to change to on-campus learning? You have that option too.
Classes are synchronous, meaning that you will be joining live classes as they are taught in real time. You’ll be learning alongside your campus-based cohort, so even though you’ll be remote, you’ll never be alone. Two times a semester you’ll need to be able to travel to campus for experiences that require hands-on training like lab work and vaccination training. During the fourth year of the degree (P4) you’ll be engaged in direct patient care as part of the Advanced Pharmacy Practice Experience (APPE). This part of the degree requires you to be under the guidance of a preceptor and will require you to be in Colorado or a location where a CU Pharmacy preceptor is available.
Whether you choose on-campus or remote learning, the PharmD application process begins by creating a PharmCAS account. Refer to our admissions information for those details.
