Athens is home to the University of Georgia and is the main campus for the College of Pharmacy. In addition, four extended campuses support and advance the College’s mission of enhancing healthcare outcomes across the state. Each campus reflects local needs while at the same time offering a consistent experience for all students no matter where they are located.

For those studying in the Doctor of Pharmacy program, all students complete their PY1 and PY2 years on the Athens campus to prepare for future practice experiences. In the PY3 year, select cohorts of students have an opportunity to complete their degree on an Extended Campus, each of which offers a distinct but comparable experience. All students, regardless of campus, receive their degree from the UGA College of Pharmacy.
