How many intern hours are required for pharmacist licensure in Massachusetts?

A minimum of 1500 hours.

What if I was educated in a foreign country?

Before applying, you must first contact NABP to be approved to take the Foreign Pharmacy Graduate Equivalency Examination (FPGEE). You do not have to take the exam first, you only need to be approved to take it.

If I answered 'yes' to a conviction or Good Moral Character (GMC) question on the application, what should I submit?

• Court documents regarding incident
• Personal statement about incident

I worked intern hours in Massachusetts but want to get licensed in another state. How do I get those hours transferred?

Official verification of a Board license can be downloaded immediately and for free from https://checkahealthlicense.mass.gov

If either the downloaded version is not acceptable to the recipient or an out-of-state verification form requires Board completion, complete the online application and provide the $15 non-refundable and non-transferable fee. More information
