Texas Pharmacy Association
Academy of Student Pharmacists
 

If you are member of TT-ASP... you are a member of TPA-ASP!

The Texas Pharmacy Association is the only overarching pharmacy association in the state. It includes academies for all aspects of pharmacy, including students and pharmacy technicians.

The Academy of Student Pharmacists (ASP) represents the students of all pharmacy schools in Texas. When a student pays membership dues to TT-ASP, he or she is automatically a member of TPA-ASP.

TPA-ASP serves as an arena for students to become familiar with the Texas Pharmacy Association and provides educational development programs to facilitate professional growth, networking and mentorship.
