San Antonio – The University of the Incarnate Word (UIW) is proud to announce that the Feik School of Pharmacy (FSOP) graduating Class of 2021 led the State of Texas by finishing No. 1 in the state on the North American Pharmacist Licensure Examination (NAPLEX).

In addition, the FSOP Class of 2021 finished No. 3 in Texas on the Multistate Pharmacy Jurisprudence Examination (MPJE). That put the class at No. 18 in the country for that exam and in the top 12% across the nation.
