I am currently worried because I got a C- in a class, but it is not a prerequisites of the pharmacy school that I got accepted to. Is there any chance I will get denied of acceptance?
 
Relax, you are fine. They only require you to hold a C minimum for pre-reqs. What I did this quarter was change the grade mode to pass/no pass on classes I am taking for "fun" so that my GPA remains intact.

Check the policy as stated in your acceptance letter. For the University of Minnesota- you don't even need to turn in the transcript if you have no prereqs left- and even if it's a pre-req..you only need a C- or higher. So again, the conditions of your acceptance should be clearly stated in your acceptance packet.
 
The acceptance letter said that I need to complete the prereqs listed below with a C or better. I passed all of those required prereqs, but got a C- in the class that isn't required.

Call your school and ask. For me personally, my acceptance letter said I must complete all courses (pre-req or not) with a C or better and specifically said C- is under 2.00 which is failing.

Really? Then what if you take a course as pass/no pass? There are loopholes to this. If you think you are going to get a C-, then switch to pass/no pass before the change grade mode deadline is over.

Well, OP found out about the grade now which is way too late to change from credit to pass/fail. However, if you can still change it, do it! Pass = Pass
