About the course

Some pharmacy schools accept students with or without their completing a bachelor?s degree, but many pharmacy schools are converting to Pharm.D. programs that require a bachelor?s degree for admission. For those schools that do not yet require a bachelor?s degree, students who enter NKU are able to start their science courses right away, or students who have AP credit hours can complete the entry requirements in just two years, but more commonly, students require three years. Even for pharmacy schools that do not require a bachelor?s degree for admission, advisors generally recommend that students fully complete their bachelor?s degrees both to better prepare students for the rigors of pharmacy school and to give them maximal flexibility in their future career directions. Both the Department of Biological Sciences and the Department of Chemistry & Biochemistry have faculty advisors who specialize in pre-pharmacy advising. In addition, there are specialty tracks in both departments that facilitate the completion of a bachelor?s degree after three years of NKU coursework coupled with transferring courses back from selected pharmacy programs. These tracks require careful planning, so interested students should work with their advisors as early in their NKU careers as possible. Scholarships - View all scholarships Internships
