Is Pharmacy considered an undergrad degree or a professional degree? What degree do you need to have to become a pharmacist?
 
What degree do you need to apply for Pharm D.?

Bachelor of Pharmacy was phased out as of 1998.
You can no longer get a Bachelor of Pharmacy.

To apply to Pharmacy School (in hopes of graduating and receiving a Doctorate of Pharmacy) you must have a core set of courses from an accredited college, decently high GPA (3.4+), and a good PCAT score (similar to ACT/SAT in high school, but not identical).

My suggestion is to read the stickies!
