Buckeye-Bound: Utilizing Student Ambassadors to Yield a Robust PharmD Class

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: Objective: While applications to pharmacy schools have been gradually increasing, a submitted application is only half the battle for schools of pharmacy. The true work of recruitment occurs after a student has already applied. Time, budgets, and personnel can often pose barriers to successfully yielding candidates, but student ambassador programs may offer a solution. A pilot program sought to describe the work and outcomes associated with a new student ambassador program.
