We researched options for a pharmacy degree awhile ago as my daughter was looking into this possibility. All the counsel we got said, you need to pick a degree that you can major in and do something with as there is NO guarantee that you will make it into pharmacy school. It is extremely competitive, especially after two years undergrad. Essentially the deal is that you work on your pre-reqs to pharmacy school in the first two years and then you apply to pharmacy school. A lot of times you won’t be accepted after two years and you will need to continue on and complete your degree, trying again to be accepted to pharmacy school. The best thing you can do is go to the school’s particular website, i.e. the UF website for pharmacy:
[University of Florida College of Pharmacy](http://www.cop.ufl.edu/root4/index.htm)

There’s also another very popular website which answers tons of info on pharmacy degrees and other pre-health degrees. Here is the pharmacy forum. Many current pharmacy students are there to answer questions, but you can check extensive archives of questions.
