The closure of Vermont’s only pharmacy school comes as the college experiences its eighth year of declining enrollment. Greg Dewey, the college president, said in a Nov. 10 news release that it needs to focus on recruiting students for its Albany campus.

“While we are no longer accepting students to the Vermont program, we will strive to maintain a presence in Vermont with a select number of clinical rotation sites,” Jennifer Mathews, the school’s regional dean, said in the news release.
