NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Belmont University is on the cutting edge of local medicine. The school is the only one in the state with its own pharmacy.
The fully operational pharmacy has two aims: to serve the campus community and train future pharmacists. The pharmacy is open to students, staff and the surrounding community.
The students are getting hands on experience right on campus, which is a program that’s the first of its kind here in the state.
Students and staff also get a deep discount of prescription medication. Some medicines are as much as 25-percent off.
University Administrators said the pharmacy has also become a major selling point to potential students.
