Every applicant must submit Pharmacy College Admission Test  (PCAT) scores to PharmCAS, not to the UNC Eshelman School of Pharmacy. The PCAT code to use to have your scores sent to UNC through PharmCAS is 104. 

There are several scores reported on the PCAT score report.  The UNC Eshelman School of Pharmacy reviews all the scores, but reports composite percentile rank.  The average PCAT composite percentile rank score of students admitted in the past few years was 85%. Your highest PCAT score will be the one considered for admission.

The PCAT is offered each year in the summer, fall, and spring. Applicants must take the PCAT no later than October 2008 to receive full consideration for fall 2009 admission. Students taking the exam for the first time in January 2009 will be considered for the waiting list only. The PCAT is administered all over the country, including the UNC Eshelman School of Pharmacy in Kerr Hall.
