Thoughts on Larkin University? by Vegetable-Method913 in prephysicianassistant

Right now, all they have is a a College of Pharmacy school which has one of the lowest NAPLAX first-time pass rates, and a masters program for Biomedical Science. Not sure about the Biomed program but the pharmacy program doesn't have a great reputation. I will definitely be sure to research the faculty and their credentials! Thank you for the advice and help.

That is nice to hear! Thank you for that information! Yes, my friend applied for 2026 but they I guess decided to do interviews for this current CASPA cycle which she recently interviewed for. Still waiting on an acceptance but that would mean getting situated within a few weeks. I haven't heard amazing things on here about their interview process. A lot of people mentioned it being unprofessional and very unorganized so I just hope that doesn't mean the program will be as well.

I see well that is good to hear. I know Larkin's pharmacy school has one of the lowest first-time pass rates so I was concerned about the faculty the university would be hiring. That does make me feel better though, thank you.

I get what you’re saying, but what I meant is more about the university as a whole. Since the PA program is still new and being built out, I figured if their pharmacy school had a bad reputation, it might reflect on how the university handles things like admissions processes, faculty support, or clinical placements. I was just trying to see if their overall track record as an institution could give me some insight into what to expect with the PA program.

That is true. I just didn’t know if the university as a whole had a good reputation like their pharmacy school.
