Hey guys. I just finished all my pre-reqs for pharmacy school here in Florida and I have a 3.8 science and math gpa. My overall gpa is a 3.03 which I brought up in 2 1/2 years from a 0.8 which I earned from 3 years of goofing off. My big question is would I be able to get into pharmacy school with a felony in possession of marijuana with intent to sell? This happened in 06 when I just turned 18. I am now 24 and have completely changed my life around. I even moved across the country to get away from my old life style to pursue a successful career. That felony is now expunged. I'm worried that I won't be able to get into pharmacy school, and if there is a chance that I do, then would I able to get an intern license to complete the program? Ive talked to te BOP here in Florida and they told me its a case by case review...
Can I still get into pharmacy school and licensed with a felony?

My buddy got in with a similar record. He did have to jump through extra hoops with the board, and he couldn't get a tech job at Walgreens. I don't know if he's working now, but he just finished his first year.

We didn't go into too deep detail talking about it. It was drug/alcohol related though. I know he had to go in for regular urine testing. I think this was a program to get it expunged, but I'm not sure.
