Pre-Pharmacy

Most colleges of pharmacy require entrants to have completed one or two years of pre-pharmacy training emphasizing mathematics and basic sciences, but also including courses in the humanities and social sciences. At least five years of study beyond high school are required to earn the pharmacy degree. Students should choose electives in consultation with their academic advisor and based on the catalog of the college/university to which they plan to transfer.
