Pharmacy Dual Acceptance Program Leading to Doctoral Studies

A grade of “C” or better must be earned in a prerequisite course in order to advance to the next course in the sequence.

The Biology Department will award 3 hours of credit for the General Education class 02-100 (Introduction to Biology) when students have received a score of 4 or 5 on AP tests. No credit is awarded for major classes based on AP scores.

Total Credit Hours: 46

II. The paradigm outlined in the Dual Acceptance Program Fact Sheet must be followed EXACTLY to complete all prerequisites prior to entering Chicago College of Pharmacy.

III. General Education courses can be taken in any order. However, absolutely NO substitutions are allowed. Absolutely no courses may be completed away from Lewis University – this includes any junior college credit awarded prior to attending Lewis University (that is, you cannot transfer in credit to lighten the credit load during the two year period). Any student failing to complete the courses listed in this paradigm automatically forfeits pre-admission status to CCP.
