Becoming a licensed pharmacist in Canada is more than completing a degree.
- The program must be accredited.
- You must pass the Pharmacy Examining Board of Canada’s exam.
- You must complete practical experience through an internship program.
You can’t get into a pharmacy program right out of high school. A pre-professional degree is now required before you can apply to a Doctor of Pharmacy (PharmD) program.
Whether you come from Lakeland, or from inside the particular university, you will go through a competitive admission process.
There are a limited number of seats at each university. If you don’t get in the first time you apply, you should try again.
For more information about requirements, check the university websites.
Note: Completing university transfer courses doesn't guarantee you admission to degree programs at universities.
- You must also meet all the admission requirements of the degree-granting institution. This may include appropriate high school courses and averages.
- Admission is competitive. There may be quotas for number of students admitted to the degree program at the receiving institution.
- Some receiving institutions specify a minimum grade for transfer credit.
- If you change a program or receiving institution, be aware that there may not be room in the new program.
