In accordance with the University's Basic Education Requirements, a student in the College of Pharmacy must demonstrate proficiency in a foreign language equivalent to the completion of two semesters of college coursework. If a student has completed two years of a single foreign language in high school, no additional foreign language is necessary. Non native English speakers may take a placement exam in their native language to demonstrate competence in their native language. The foreign language requirement must be fulfilled before a student can be admitted to the professional sequence of courses. The applicant will be considered on the basis of overall academic performance.
Emphasis is on grades earned in required prepharmacy courses.
Work done at the University and work done elsewhere are evaluated separately. 1 A student who has been denied admission to the University or has been admitted to the University and to the professional program but fails to enroll in either, and who wishes to enter the professional program in a subsequent semester, must reapply for admission to both the University and the College of Pharmacy and must meet all requirements in force at the time of reapplication. A student who has been admitted to and enrolls in the professional program but withdraws prior to the end of the first semester , and who wishes to reenter in a subsequent semester, must apply for readmission to the professional program and must meet all requirements in force at the time of reapplication. A student who enrolls in the professional program but withdraws after completing at least one semester , and who wishes to reenter in a subsequent semester, must apply for readmission to the professional program and must meet all requirements in force at the time of reapplication. A student who has also been out of the University must submit an application for readmission to the University as a continuing student.
