The
Howard University Non-traditional Doctor of Pharmacy (NTDP) program
normally requires two years to complete. Pharmacists are admitted
twice a year as members of a cohort. Cohorts consist of not geographically
bounded pharmacists who joined the program at the same time and
will progress through it at the same pace. They must complete an
application and fulfill all requirements of the program. The NTDP
curriculum is learner- and competency-based and incorporates communication,
problem solving, and critical thinking in all phases of the program.
