PHARM.D. ADMISSIONS

Applicants with Previous Degrees

 

Increasingly, applicants have completed a substantial amount of coursework in excess of the minimum pre-pharmacy requirements, often culminating in a bachelor's or advanced degree. Candidates who have completed more than the minimum coursework may be more competitive; however, a previous degree is not the sole criterion used in selecting candidates for admission. Applicants must have a competitive GPA regardless of the number of hours completed prior to application. In addition, completion of any previous degree does not exempt a student from any of the prerequisites.

Transfer Students From Another Pharmacy Program

The University of Colorado School of Pharmacy has a very unique and integrated curriculum; therefore, students wishing to transfer from another school or college of pharmacy must meet all pre-pharmacy admission requirements. We do not offer advanced standing regardless of previous course work or background. If offered admission, candidates must complete the entire four-year course of study.

We do not offer advanced standing regardless of academic background, degrees earned or prior training. If offered admission, candidates must complete the entire four-year program. No credit from any other pharmacy programs (U.S. or non U.S.) is granted toward fulfilling the degree requirements.
