Entrance requirements to colleges of pharmacy vary; therefore, it is imperative that students familiarize themselves with the requirements of the school of their choice. (Ferris State University [FSU], Wayne State University, and University of Michigan operate accredited colleges of pharmacy in the state of Michigan.) Information about the various schools of pharmacy can be found on the American Associate of Colleges of Pharmacy website: www.aacp.org. The doctor of pharmacy curriculum requires 2 years of pre-pharmacy and 4 years of professional pharmacy education.
The following prepharmacy courses are those required by FSU. FSU offers a calculus course in the summer that satisfies the prepharmacy requirements and require the PCAT for admission. Science courses with a grade of D are not transferable.
