Who should I contact regarding immigration matters?

Please review the information contained on this website regarding immigration issues relating to pharmacy opportunities.

If you would like to submit your resume, or if you have additional immigration questions, please direct them to: international.pharmacist@walgreens.com

What are the various steps involved in the immigration process?

A majority of foreign licensed pharmacists are required to take the Foreign Pharmacy Graduate Equivalency Exam (FPGEE), the Test of Spoken English (TSE), and the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL). An individual who receives a passing score on all three exams will be issued an FPGEC certificate. If you have not taken these exams, please contact the various organizations for testing requirements.
