Course Load

The curriculum of the Ernest Mario School of Pharmacy is designed so that a student can meet the appropriate professional degree requirements for the Pharm.D. degree in six years by completing the program, as outlined under the Programs of Study later in the chapter.

With the written approval of the academic dean, a student may elect to take as few as 12 credits in any given term. Courses may be dropped to effect such reduction to 12 credits within the first eight weeks of the term. In contemplating such a reduction, however, the student should bear in mind which courses are prerequisite for other courses to be taken subsequently, as well as potential scheduling conflicts. The student also should give serious consideration to the financial implications of any additional years of education and its impact on other personal circumstances.

Students may not carry more than 20 credits in one term. The Scholastic Standing Committee does not recognize, for graduation purposes, courses taken in excess of the maximum load determined by faculty rule, unless permission was granted previously by the committee.

The Ernest Mario School of Pharmacy does not have any provision for part-time students, except in those cases where the Scholastic Standing Committee or academic dean specifies a partial course load for not more than one or two terms.
