Pharmacy Major... in Las Vegas or anywhere in Nevada?


Pharmacy Major... in Las Vegas or anywhere in Nevada?
I'm going to be a senior this coming fall in high school in Las Vegas, NV. Can anyone please help me with the information on universities and their courses to be a pharmacists? What courses should be taken? Which college/University? What is my best offer?

I believe the University of Southern Nevada is your only choice for a PharmD program. Here's their website: http://www.usn.edu/pharmacy/ You'll need to take all the Science and Math (calculus) classes your high school offers, and do well in them (at least an A), plus an over average of 90% or better will get your foot in the door. If you take a look at USN's pre-requisite, they require college credits to be done first before you apply to the program. Just make sure you do well in the pre-req courses, score well on the PCAT and you should be good. All the best!!
