It use to be before 2004 you had to get a BA/BS in pharmacology before being admitted into the program, but requirements have changed. Now, you just need to meet certain requirement listed by the pharmacy school of choice for admittance. Some people choose to get their BA and then enter the PharmD program. It is possible to be admitted without a degree, however competitors with a BA in Biology/chemistry or other related fields will be admitted first.

It would seem that any Pharmacy School would have this answer, also it would seem that you could call your local pharmacist and get the correct answer. A high school counselor should also be able to answer this question, too. **************************** As long as you have graduated from high school or completed a GED, it does not matter what type of diploma you have.
