Students who plan to apply to the Professional (Pharm.D.) Program in Fall 2026 and after may be eligible to major change into the Pre-Professional Program in Pharmacy. Those students should book an appointment with Dr. Megan Delaney. Pre-Professional drop-in sessions are only open to current Pre-Professionals. Those applying for Fall 2025 should attend an admissions drop-in session or meet with Lyn Alexander.
Our advising team, made up of faculty, staff, and peer advisors, guide, support, and mentor our students through both the Pre-Professional and Professional (Pharm.D.) Programs in Pharmacy. Our Center's mission is founded on UConn’s mission of teaching, learning, and student success. Through our collaborative advising process, we empower Pharmacy students to work towards their unique educational, professional, and personal goals, and join the future generations of pharmacy professionals and researchers.
Peer advisors are students in our Professional Program in Pharmacy (Pharm.D. Program) who have had additional training and guidance in peer advising and mentoring. They are key members of our advising team as they can provide unique perspectives and experiences as professional students.
