The purpose of the CSUPPC (Chicago State University PrePharmacy Club) is to provide college students of all backgrounds who are interested in or are already pursuing a career in pharmacy with a social network of goal-orientated peers with whom they can share information and concerns.  CSUPPC will strive to assist students with researching pharmacy schools and their prerequisite coursework, admission requirements, admission deadlines, internships, and educate students about the importance of the PCAT and PharmCAS.  Furthermore the CSUPPC will provide an opportunity for students to meet with and ask questions of practicing pharmacist and other health care professionals who are invited as guests to our meetings.
