Finishing Undergrad while in Grad School?

This might be an odd question, but I am curious what the answer is.

Say I finish all necessary pre-reqs for Pharmacy school and get accepted, but I do not finish my undergrad courses for my degree (BS Bio). Can I enroll in Pharmacy school and complete my last few required courses (2 biology classes) for my undergrad degree during summer school at my undergrad university? Or are there rules against this?

I don't know if anyone has done this, but I am wondering if this was at all possible or if it depends on the schools.

Probably depends on the school but at mine you can.

There are no rules against it (unless your school has some crazy rule), although I see no advantage to doing so.

Thanks for your responses. It is a main goal of mine to actually finish my undergrad degree, but I would have to stay one extra semester part time and I feel as if that's a waste of time when I could be advancing. I realize that having a PharmD is better and would make the BS less important but I just would like the satisfaction of both degrees 🙂
