<p>Just some news we heard this weekend while we were visiting Pitt. After your fourth year (second year of Pharmacy program) - they will be awarding a BS in Pharmaceutical Science and then of course the PharmD at the end of six years. You don’t have to take any extra classes, you just receive it and can participate in graduation etc. I think it’s a great idea if for some reason you had to delay your last two years or if you decide to go on another path, you at least have your BS in hand.</p>
