One success, different stories — but one Centralino spirit. 💜✨

Last May 7, 2026, the MCU College of Pharmacy successfully held its Testimonial Gathering for the April 2026 Registered Centralino Pharmacists with the theme:
“Isang Tagumpay, Iba’t Ibang Kwento: Honoring Centralino Pharmacists’ Excellence and Resilience.”

The gathering became a meaningful celebration of perseverance, sacrifices, faith, and triumph. This year’s achievement was made even more meaningful as the College proudly celebrated its 100% passing rate among first-time takers in the April 2026 Pharmacist Licensure Examination — a reflection of the hard work, resilience, and commitment of our graduates, faculty members, and support system.

The College also recognizes and deeply appreciates the dedication, extra effort, mentorship, and guidance of our faculty members who continuously coached, encouraged, and believed in our students not only during board preparation, but throughout their entire pharmacy journey.

We likewise extend our heartfelt gratitude to the MCU Administration, our valued internship partner institutions, preceptors, and industry collaborators for their unwavering support in helping shape future Centralino pharmacists through meaningful learning experiences and mentorship.

To our April 2026 Registered Centralino Pharmacists — your College is proud of you. Continue carrying the Centralino spirit with competence, compassion, humility, resilience, and excellence as you serve the profession and the community. 💊🎉
