Doctor of Pharmacy
If you are interested in becoming a pharmacist, a PharmD (Doctor of Pharmacy) degree is needed. PharmD degrees do not require a bachelor's degree first, but you do need to complete a set of college prerequisite courses and a specific number of college credits to apply to the PharmD degree program.
- For more information on the PharmD degree and program, visit the PharmD section of the Guide.
