Is it possible for a undergrad student that has finished the pre-reqs and has pharmacy experience get into pharmacy school? Or does it take a BA or BS degree to get in?
 
If you have 3.85 and above there is a slight chance. Especially at USN. But most do have BA or BS some even have their PhD. There was a guy at USC who had a PhD and applied so schools get variety of applicants and you will be lucky if you get in. I had a friend who was 20 years old and did two years of community college and with a GPA of 3.94 got accepted to USN and it's his first year there now.
 
It depends on the school. Some require a BS/BA and some don't. The school I am applying to does not require a BS, but they say you will be more "competetive" if you have one.

I think I read somewhere that it may change in the future so that a BS is required for all pharmacy schools.
