Leadership
PPSA hopes that our members will gain knowledge about and experience in the field of pharmacy in order to become a competitive pharmacy applicant and to seek Executive Board positions.
Education
By establishing an organization of prospective pharmacy students, we hope to connect those interested in the field to motivate and support each other.
Community
Being involved in both the UCSB and Santa Barbara/Goleta community is something we strive for both as UCSB students and as prospectie health providers.

PPSA Mission Statement​
Founded in 2003, the UCSB Pre-Pharmacy Student Association (PPSA) is the only pre-pharmacy organization on campus. We are a student-run organization with the purpose of exposing the UCSB community to the wide range of fields available within pharmacy. PPSA is dedicated to helping Gauchos prepare for the transition from UCSB to a professional career, as a student or otherwise. We are not exclusively for pre-pharmacy students—whether you are planning to attend pharmacy school or are still undecided about the field, we are here to serve all UCSB students and provide the resources necessary for you to succeed.
