Idaho pharmacy intern vs extern?

I noticed the Idaho State Board of Pharmacy has two separate applications: one for pharmacist externs and pharmacist interns for if you are still enrolled in a pharmacy school or if you have already graduated respectively. Does the Idaho BOP hand out separate licenses for "externs" and "interns"? I have applied for an extern license from out of state before graduation but have been denied because i have since graduated.

Yes. Idaho is weird. If you are graduated and coming here before passing the NAPLEX/MPJE and getting your pharmacist license, you will need the intern license. Externs are only those currently enrolled in school.

Ah I see. Thank you!
