My cousin is in her 4th and final year in BPharma. Is BPharma even recognized in USA? Will she be able to enroll in a Master of Science in Pharmacy or Ph.D in Pharmaceutics here in USA? Can you please let me know what is possible and what the procedures are for coming to USA for her?

    I doubt that the BPharm from India will be recognized in the USA, at least in terms of working. However, it might be sufficient to be accepted into a master’s program. To come to the US to study, an international student must first be accepted into a program. Then she must show proof that she has enough money to pay tuition, room, board, books, health care etc. to be self-sufficient. Then she can apply for a student visa. The university will usually handle most of the paperwork for this. So your cousin should look for schools that offer a Masters in Pharmacy, then go to the websites and look under “International Students”. She should contact the admissions office to determine if she meets the entry requirements [who]

    An Indian BPharm degree is not recognized in terms of being able to practice pharmacy. She’ll have to start all over again or get accepted into an international PharmD program. There is no such degree as a M.S. Pharmacy in the U.S. She can apply for a research based PhD degree. [who]
