Be recommended by your Walgreens District Pharmacy Supervisor, District Manager, and the Educational Assistance Program Committee.

A student who participates in the Pre-Pharmacy Program must remain employed with Walgreens as a full-time pharmacist for two years after graduating from pharmacy school. If a student leaves Walgreens before that period of time elapses, he/she will have to repay the award.
