Professional Licensure Disclosure
Students who are considering an academic program that may lead to a pharmacist license are strongly encouraged to contact the appropriate licensing agency in the state they intend to practice to seek information and guidance before enrolling in a program. Individual states and territories may have different professional licensure requirements to practice as a pharmacist. In addition to the educational requirements, a licensure board may have requisites such as background checks, years of work experience, fingerprinting, professional examinations, etc.
