Apply

We welcome your interest in the College of Pharmacy’s highly ranked online graduate programs! Admission standards are established by the University of Florida Graduate School, the University of Florida College of Pharmacy, and the specific concentration area to which you are applying. Here are the steps to apply:

STEP 1: Complete an application.

Regardless of program, all graduate students apply using the UF graduate school application through CollegeNET. You will select your college and major within the application. Complete the application and pay the $30 non-refundable application fee. Review your application carefully before submission, as changes cannot be made once the application is submitted.

The Office of Admissions does not provide an application fee waiver. Additionally, if your application is not considered because the application deadline is passed, UF will not issue you a refund for the application fee. It is important to know the application deadlines for the intended major. If you are applying to more than one program, you must complete an application for each program and pay the non-refundable application fee.

Ensure this information is included on your résumé or curriculum vitae (CV) that is uploaded within your graduate application.
