UIC is a 4 year school. I believe Rutgers has a 6 year program.
In California, you need a bachelors.
With regards to the public schools, they give preference to their state residents before everyone else.

At this point in time, there's a national shortage of pharmacists. Getting into any pharmacy school is fine. It's best to go to the one located in the state you want to live in. Your goal is to be licensed in that state so you can work in that state. The pharmacy school in that state is best suited to preparing you to be licensed in that state.

CA has about 6 now (more coming). 2 are brand new and are still kind of on probation status. You can likely get a job graduating from any of them tho (the new ones haven't graduated a class yet I believe). Yes, there's a pecking order in prestige among these schools, but the demand is so high, I haven't seen the greater prestige amount to anything yet.

I didn't bother checking into all the schools you listed, but I did a quick Yahoo search into Northeastern (randomly picked it). Right there on the PharmD page they talk about their 6 year program.

So, this tells me you didn't bother looking at the web pages of any of these schools. Look up the web page of each pharmacy school you're interested in. Click onto the PharmD section. If there's an admissions page, that will tell you their requirements and that's usually where they have info on any 6 year or special programs they have.

You'll get better and more detailed info on the basics by going through the school's webpage than you will by asking a broad and general question on Yahoo Answers.

You can view the ranks of pharmacy schools by going to the US News and Reports, Best Colleges in America's website and doing a search for pharmacy schools.
