The Albany College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences

Date: Apr 16 2007
Major: Pharmacy (This Major's Salary over time)
Strictly speaking, ACP is not a real college. Even compared to a community college, it has fewer resources for students to access and yet it charges a student more than $30,000 per year (if boarding is included). There are few good professors in this school. Most of the instructors teaching pharmacy courses are newly graduates from ACP itself and are inexperienced. And yet, some of them act as if they were Ph.D. from an Ivy League university. So you basically have to rely on yourself to learn those difficult subjects. Considering the tremendous workload of pharmacy major, this is not an easy job however. Therefore, many students left for other better pharmacy schools after one or two semesters. Even those who stayed, I know lots of them (more than a half)just hate this school. So don't come to ACP unless you are rejected by all the other pharmacy schools you apply to. Even so, it would be worthwhile to wait one more year to re-apply to those pharmacy schools that previously rejected you. I would probably only suggest my worst enemies apply to ACP.
