Chii chinonzi chikwereti chinoratidza, uye chii chisiri
The spread between the quarters is wider than for dentistry or medicine, which is a real finding about where you study rather than noise. That range is median cumulative FEDERAL LOAN DEBT at completion, not a tuition sticker price and not total cost. It is what completers actually borrowed, so it excludes grants, savings, family money, employer funding and living costs — which makes it a FLOOR on what the credential costs, never a ceiling. The low and high figures are the 25th and 75th percentiles across the institutions that report a figure for this programme, so a quarter of institutions sit below the low end. College Scorecard pools two award years into each figure; the release used here is dated 10 June 2026.
Four years of doctoral study, usually after two to four years of undergraduate prerequisites, then the NAPLEX and a state law examination.
Licences renew every one to two years by state with continuing education requirements.

The National Association of Boards of Pharmacy publishes a national count of licensed pharmacists, and it is behind a $395 paywall in its Survey of Pharmacy Law. A figure a reader cannot check is not a figure we will publish, so this page carries no credential-holder count. What it does carry, below, is the federal record of what happened to the people who completed the degree.
