Reporting Hours
Student pharmacists must accrue 1500 hours of practical pharmacy experience under a licensed pharmacist before they can become licensed pharmacists. Students must accrue over 1900 hours from IPPE and APPE, which is more than sufficient for Idaho. Other states may require 2000 or more hours. Students are encouraged to report paid or unpaid non-IPPE/APPE extern hours to the College of Pharmacy using the form below. Be sure to submit the affidavit within 30 days from the ending date of the training period. If working for an extended period of time, please report your hours at least every 6 months. Please send your completed form to Kara McCurdy at mccukara@pharmacy.isu.edu
Out of State Information
Student pharmacists acquiring extern hours at pharmacy practice sites outside of Idaho, are responsible for learning about and following the laws in that state. In general, extern hours obtained in another state will count towards an Idaho pharmacist license. Contact your State Board to familiarize yourself with their laws. A list of Pharmacy Boards may be found on the National Association Boards of Pharmacy site under "Boards of Pharmacy " on the left-hand side.
