USC is unique because it provides students with pharmacy experience in a community and hospital setting. Students who have no [prior] pharmacy experience are able to learn about two integral careers within the field earlier on in their academic pursuits.

Compared to other pharmacy schools, USC puts you out there from the get go. Within the first couple of weeks, I was out in the community giving flu shots and screening patients in hypertension, cholesterol and diabetes. It really enforces all the knowledge gained.
