  program_description: |
    The University of Findlay’s Distance Doctor of Pharmacy (Distance PharmD) provides a unique opportunity to achieve your doctoral degree in a distance format in just four years. This innovatively designed program blends the convenience of online didactic coursework (synchronous and asynchronous) with three week-long campus immersions and experiential learning in your community. Students from all states except CO and Puerto Rico are welcome to apply to Findlay’s Distance PharmD program
    
    Experiential Learning
    During the program's first three years, you will complete 300 hours (100 each year) of supervised and structured training in a clinical setting with a licensed pharmacist. These guided experiences follow standard U.S. practice models and help you gain confidence while building practical pharmaceutical and patient-focused communication skills. 
    
    You will complete at least 1,440 hours of Advanced Pharmacy Practice Experience (APPE) in the program's final year. An assigned preceptor directs these experiences at a designated site near you. A minimum of 160 hours must be completed in each of the required APPE areas, including community practice, ambulatory patient care, hospital/health system pharmacy, and inpatient general medicine. The remaining hours include specialty and elective areas.
    
    Integrated Support Services
    We support our distance students from enrollment through graduation, including assistance in securing experiential learning sites and preceptors near you.
    
    Notable Academic Quality
    The University of Findlay and the College of Pharmacy are nationally recognized by U.S. News & World Report and other esteemed organizations (https://newsroom.findlay.edu/findlay-ranked-in-u-s-news-best-national-universities-for-16th-year/).
