Welcome Prospective Pharmacy Student! 
 

We are so glad that you have chosen to look into the exciting and challenging field of Pharmacy!  For anybody who has dreamed of becoming a pharmacist from an early age to anyone who has just discovered that this profession might be perfect for a career, this is the right page to be. 

In order to become a pharmacist in the United States, a student must graduate from an accredited pharmacy program.  The practice-level degree is the Doctor of Pharmacy or Pharm.D.  The Pharm.D. degree allows the graduates to become not only a registered pharmacist after successfully completing the State Licensure exams, but also a health care professional with expanded opportunities in the provision of pharmacotherapy and the clinical sciences.  

What do I need to do to become a Pharm.D. you ask?  Well, we have all the requirements right here.
