Title: Pharmacy transfer
Post by: 23serenity on July 11, 2018, 02:02:04 am

Hello
I would like to know if you complete 2nd year bachelor science, if It is possible to transfer into Pharmacy?

ie,

First year BSc —> Second year BSc —> First year Pharm

i am aware of the graduate program but would like to know if this route is possible

Yup but you won't be able to get credit for the units done and will start from first year, first semester.

Does that mean they will look at results (70+ grade) from your two years of tertiary studies or just latest?

From the Monash website:

As a minimum, the faculty requires you to meet a 70% minimum average across all subjects for transfer into Pharmacy courses. You should keep in mind that competition for places is often strong, and you might need a higher average grade.

That particular webpage also recommends the grad-entry pathway more than once (which I see you're already aware of), however I'd go by the above info :)
