On Episode 27 of White Coat Radio, we chat with student pharmacist Maddie Stacey (’26), who found confidence — and a community — through East Tennessee State University Bill Gatton College of Pharmacy’s Early Admission Pathway. A native of Kingsport, Stacey learned about the college’s EAP program while in high school. For her, the program has made the adjustment to pharmacy school much easier.

Open to high school seniors and first-year ETSU students, the Early Admission Pathway enables students to earn both a Bachelor of Science and a Doctor of Pharmacy degree in just six years. EAP students also join the college’s Pre-Pharmacy Student Organization, designed to introduce them to different specialties in pharmacy and to foster connections with their classmates.
