Prepharmacy
Prepharmacy
involves a three-year curriculum that contains
the course requirements for the professional curriculum of the
Cedarville University School of Pharmacy, as well as other
pharmacy programs in the United States. This program is
designed to prepare students for advanced professional study in
pharmacy. These courses compare closely to degree requirements
for the Bachelor of Arts degree with a major in biology, the
Bachelor of Science degree with a major in biology, and the
Bachelor of Arts degree with a major in chemistry, enabling
students who wish to earn a bachelor’s degree to do so relatively
easily. Since admission is very competitive, the majority of
students admitted to the more than 130 other schools of pharmacy
across the nation have earned bachelor’s degrees. The courses
contained in the prepharmacy curriculum described below serve
as prerequisites for the professional course requirements for the
Cedarville University School of Pharmacy.
The following 99–100-hour program should be included in the
three years the prepharmacy student attends Cedarville.
