Policies and Procedures for Accreditation
Professional Licensure Disclosure
The Doctor of Pharmacy program at the University of Michigan College of Pharmacy is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education (ACPE). Each state/ jurisdiction determines their requirements for professional licensure, with all requiring that licensure applicants have graduated from an accredited pharmacy degree program and receive a passing score on the North American Pharmacist Licensure Examination (NAPLEX®). Some states/jurisdictions also require that students receive a passing score on the Multistate Pharmacy Jurisprudence Examination (MPJE).
The Doctor of Pharmacy program at the University of Michigan satisfies all current educational prerequisites for licensure as a pharmacist, as well as other licensure prerequisites in the State of Michigan (e.g., internship hours). The College of Pharmacy has not determined whether all prerequisites in states other than Michigan will be satisfied upon completion of our PharmD program (e.g., internship hours beyond those stated in the ACPE standards). Students pursuing licensure as a pharmacist outside of the State of Michigan should inquire directly to the licensing authority in that state/ jurisdiction for additional information regarding all pharmacist licensure requirements to determine eligibility in that state. Contact information for each state/jurisdiction board of pharmacy can be found on the National Association of Boards of Pharmacy (NABP) website, https://nabp.pharmacy/about/boards-of-pharmacy/.
