My time at MCPHS was informative and engaging. I feel like the school really prepares you for your future career. Although they don’t really help you once you’ve graduated in transitioning, I felt prepared for life after graduating. The labs and rotations were also very helpful for real world knowledge. I would also recommend attending a school with a 6 year program like mcphs. It not only saves time but also tuition instead racking up more student loans.

I think the school had a lot to offer. It was in a great location right in the city of Boston, which was great for experiencing a college like feel. The classes were challenging, but the professors were there to help. I also liked that they found my rotations for me, and I did not have to search four sites to do them at. That made the process way less stressful.

I don’t recommend ppl to go here unless you have no other options. Cons -The school staffs are uncaring (ex.: the dean herself) when you go to them w a concern. They laugh at you, pretend they care and push you aside. -The curriculum is not the best. Makes you take the same class you took as an undergrad without letting you skip it -Makes students waste time and money by having you pay to volunteer around the neighborhood to gain “experience� interacting w ppl instead of allowing ppl to study during...

Horrible experience. They want you to be perfect. A tiny mistake will harm your grade significantly, while at the same time, the professors themselves can't hold the standard. Curriculum is not well designed. They rush you through the metrical without real time to learn stuff. Exams are designed on test your short term memory rather than understanding. Some professors are harsh and not caring. There is no supporting system in the program meaning the professors can do whatever they want and the students... Read More

Students are only worth profits at MCPHS. The staff and faculty treat you accordingly. It's a very corporate experience, wherein the staff/professors are inhumane and disrespectful to students, and the curriculum is poorly planned causing students immense stress. Do not recommend at all.

MCPHS is a specific kind of institution. The staff is by far the most caring, personable group. Its difficult but its worth it. I have yet to graduate but Im looking forward to it. If you love healthcare so much that your'e willing to study as much as you can come on over. The classes are incredibly in depth and its easy to make study groups. Coffee in the commuter lounge and study space. Good luck, happy studying.

Where I was before compare to now? I believe I made the right decision to come here. I left my career, house, and people I was comfortable with to a place where I can expand my knowledge and met new people along the way. The professors at MCPHS-Manchester are the best. They will help you when you are in need. One word to describe this place "family ".

I am currently enrolled in the Pharmacy program, I am in my third year of the doctorate program which means I am considered a graduate student. The reason why I am attending MCPHS is because I loved the school since I walked in. In such a big city, the school is a small community of friends, teachers and advisors. During my two years here, I have been working at the Center for Academic Success and Enrichment which helps students with classes, study tips and tutoring. I have learned more about friendship,...

Pros - A well rounded program that gives you a PharmD for your hard work. Cons - Some professors aren't too friendly.

It is an awesome program, with lots of assignments to do and test to study but at the end of the day it is worth it.
