The pre-pharmacy program is a two year, 60 plus semester hour curriculum required by schools of pharmacy for admission to their professional programs. An additional four years of study at a school of pharmacy is required to become a registered pharmacist. A minimum grade point average of 2.5 overall and in the sciences is necessary to enter pharmacy school, but a minimum GPA of 3.0 is more realistic. The example curriculum below is designed to meet the requirements of the School of Pharmacy at the University of Kansas. Course requirements for other schools of pharmacy are available upon request.
