Provisional admission vs. final admission

All admission offers are initially “provisional.” An offer becomes “final” in early summer after our office:

1. Verifies that you have successfully completed all pharmacy prerequisites.
2. Receives official copies of all transcripts for all college work you have completed. (This includes official copies of transcripts you may have earlier submitted toPharmCAS.)
3. Receives notice from the UCSF Office of the Registrar that you have submitted the paperwork required to register. (Details are mailed to you after you submit your acceptance below.)
4. Successfully clears a background check administered by Certiphi Screening, Inc. (UCSF reserves the right to rescind an offer of admission to any individual whose background check reveals unprofessional conduct inconsistent with the high standards of the pharmacy profession or issues that may preclude an individual from participating in Introductory Pharmacy Practice Experiences (IPPEs) or Advanced Pharmacy Practice Experiences (APPEs). Under these circumstances, the Admissions Committee will review the application and provide a recommendation to the Vice Dean for Education. The Vice Dean for Education may revoke an offer of admission based upon this review. The decision of the Vice Dean is final and is not subject to appeal.)
