Candidates for the pharmacy (two plus four) program must have completed a year each of biology and chemistry.

Students who are conditionally admitted with a mathematics deficiency must make up that deficiency in one of the following ways: by successfully completing 50:640:042 Intermediate Algebra (no credit) or any mathematics course taken for credit at Rutgers, or by successfully completing, with at least a grade of C, any mathematics course acceptable for transfer credit. In addition, certain mathematics courses taken at other colleges which are not transferable, but in which a grade of C or better is received, may be approved by the Department of Mathematical Sciences.

Students who are conditionally admitted with a foreign language deficiency must make up that deficiency as follows:

1.  Those students who have already completed one year at the high school level or one term at the college level must complete successfully a second term of the same foreign language as previously taken.

2.  Students with no prior course work in a foreign language must successfully complete two terms of one foreign language.

Any course that is used to satisfy a mathematics or a foreign language deficiency may not be used to fulfill a general curricular requirement.

All deficiencies must be satisfied during the first two terms of attendance at Rutgers-Camden.
