Meet Maddie Stacey, a first-year student at ETSU Bill Gatton College of Pharmacy, whose journey began with the Early Admission Pathway (EAP) — a program designed for motivated high school seniors and first-year college students who want a smooth, supported transition into pharmacy school.

In this video, Maddie shares how the EAP gave her confidence, community, and a guaranteed spot at Gatton as long as she stayed on track.

🚀 About the Early Admission Pathway
The EAP allows students to earn both a Bachelor of Science and a Doctor of Pharmacy (PharmD) in just six years, with no second application, essay, or interview required once admitted. Students build relationships early, receive personalized advising, and enter pharmacy school feeling prepared and supported.

• Small, family-like community
• Outstanding faculty mentorship
• Hands-on learning from day one
• A mission centered on serving rural and underserved communities
