All three camps are offered free of charge and are geared toward high school students (entering seventh grade and beyond) and to those who are older. Lunch and refreshments will be provided. Activities include learning about the profession of pharmacy from expert faculty, conducting patient assessments, exploring pharmacy compounding techniques, practicing pharmacotherapy on a human simulator, hearing from students about their experiences at ACP, attending an admissions workshop session and taking a tour.
The camps are designed to give attendees an opportunity to experience what it is like to be a college of pharmacy student and what it takes to be a pharmacist.
