Schools awarding BA/BS?

[fendercady]

Hi, I will (hopefully) be entering a pharm.d program without a BA/BS (just my prereqs completed). Are there any schools that award a BS while in route to your pharm.d? Or any schools that have some sort of joint program?

Nope, none that I know of. From what I heard, I could be wrong so correct me if I am, but even schools like UOP that have the 5,6 year program don't award you with a BS upon completion of a pharmD.

Ole Miss gives you a BS after the first two years of the professional program and then the Pharm D after the 4th

Heres how it works at Univeristy of The Pacific.

With the 2+3 program you don't get a BS.
With the 3+3 program you dont get a BS.
With the 4+3 program you do. However its a 3 year pharmacy school so assuming you could finish your degree somewhere else in 4 years and get into pharmacy school it wouldn't matter.

If I remember correctly Creighton does. I think you may?? have to take an additional couple of classes???

NDSU gives you a B.S. in pharmaceutical sciences after the first two years of the program.
