Advanced Placement


For students admitted in the first preprofessional year of the Pharm.D. program, a maximum of 8 degree credits may be earned by advanced placement (AP). The 8-credit maximum applies to all sources of credit prior to enrollment in the first preprofessional year including AP exams, college courses taken in high school, and International Baccalaureate (IB) exams. An exception is made for General Biology, in which students can use 10 credits. Candidates for admission to the first preprofessional year who have completed advanced standing courses in secondary school may take the College Board Advanced Placement Examinations. Test scores of 4 or 5 may be sent to the Office of University Undergraduate Admissions for review. Credit is not given for scores of 3, 2, or 1. Test scores are reviewed by the Office of Academic Services in consultation with the department that offers the course.
