Academic Standards
All students in the Pharmacy Sciences major are subject to the 91直播视频WCHP undergraduate grading policy (see undergraduate academic policy) and progression guidelines.
PROGRESSION GUIDELINES
WCHP Common Curriculum Academic Progression Guidelines
The requirements laid out below apply to all courses taken in the degree program prior to matriculation into the PharmD degree program. Once a student has successfully matriculated into the PharmD degree program, they will be held to the School of Pharmacy specific academic policies and progression guidelines.
In keeping with the guidelines of the 91直播视频, all students must achieve a minimum cumulative semester-end grade point average as follows:
- Failure to maintain the minimum GPA requirements will result in academic probation as described in the Catalog of the 91直播视频.
- Students must achieve a minimum grade of 鈥淐鈥 in all courses
- Failure to achieve the above referenced minimum grades will result in program-level probation and the need to retake the course - therefore affecting academic progression.
- Students may enroll in any of the courses referenced above a maximum of two times. Enrollment in a course consists of achieving a WP, WF, or letter grade. Receiving a W in a course is not considered officially enrolled and will not result in academic penalty.
- Failure to achieve the above referenced minimum grade a second time a course is taken may result in dismissal from the major.
School of Pharmacy Academic Policies and Progression Guidelines
Once a student matriculates into the PharmD degree program they will be held to the School of Pharmacy specific academic and progression policies (See School of Pharmacy Academic and Technical Standards)
Learning Outcomes
