In order to complete the Doctor of Pharmacy degree program, a student must register for and pass each course set forth in the program’s curriculum outline. In addition, a student must be in good academic standing after completing the prescribed program. Normal program progression is sequential enrollment in all program classes each semester and successfully passing each course with a grade of “C” or better.
To remain in good academic standing in the Doctor of Pharmacy program, a student must accomplish the following:
- A cumulative and per semester GPA in all professional course work of at least 2.25.
- A minimum grade of “C” in all professional course work.
- A minimum cumulative GPA of 2.25 is required for graduation.
- Satisfactory evidence of good interpersonal relations and professional conduct.
Students must satisfactorily complete each professional year’s curriculum in order to progress to the subsequent professional year. All failed courses must be successfully repeated as soon as the course is offered again. No required course in the curriculum may be repeated more than once. If a student receives two or more failing grades in any course work in the professional curriculum, he or she will be dismissed due to academic deficiency. Students successfully completing the Doctor of Pharmacy curriculum with a passing grade in each course and a 2.25 minimum cumulative GPA will be recommended by the faculty of the College of Pharmacy for graduation.
