I have a MS in Biochemistry with courses in pharm. chem. etc. Do any current schools have an accelerated program for someone like me to become a pharmacist without starting over? Are there any off-shore schools like the offshore MD schools?
Thanks for your help.

not sure. most of them are entry-level pharmd programs.

I'm in a 3 year "accelerated program", but it is entry level. I'm not sure programs let you skip classes because of prior coursework.

As far as off-shore programs are concerned, there is only one ACPE accredited foreign pharmacy program (to the best of my knowledge) and it is in Lebanon: Lebanese American University School of Pharmacy

From their website: "LAU Doctor of Pharmacy graduates are eligible to sit for the pharmacist licensure examination in most U.S. States and Canadian Provinces. To date, the Doctor of Pharmacy Program at LAU is the only program outside the United States of America to enjoy such a privileged status."
