The strong outcome reflects the continued success of Campbell’s Doctor of Pharmacy program in preparing graduates for advanced postgraduate training and professional practice. Pharmacy residencies provide intensive clinical experiences that allow pharmacists to further develop their skills in patient care, leadership, research and specialized areas of practice.

“This exceptional match rate is a testament to the hard work, determination and professionalism of our students, as well as the dedication of our faculty and preceptors who are committed to providing an exemplary educational experience,” said Dr. Beth Mills, chair of Pharmacy Practice. “We are incredibly proud of our graduates and excited to see the impact they will make as they continue their training and serve patients in communities across the country.”

Members of the Class of 2026 secured Postgraduate Year One (PGY1) residency positions at healthcare organizations across the nation, while members of the Class of 2025 earned Postgraduate Year Two (PGY2) residency placements that will allow them to pursue advanced specialty training.

The residency match results continue a long tradition of success for Campbell pharmacy graduates and underscore the College’s commitment to preparing practice-ready pharmacists equipped to meet the evolving healthcare needs of patients and communities.

The following graduates agreed to be recognized for their residency placements.
