6 years. 2 Years of calculus, chemistry, biology and simlar pre-pharmacy classes in college. You then may be required to take the PCATS (like the SATs, but for pharmacy) and apply to upper level pharmacy classes. Admissions standards are not as high as med school but are getting tougher every year. You'll need at least a 3.4-3.6 in the prepharm classes to even be considered for the PharmD program, and pharmacy tech or similar experience is recommended.

It takes six years for the Doctorate in Pharmacy (Pharm-D) degree. There used to be a 5-year Master's degree program available, but last I heard they were going to eliminate the Master's program and require all pharmacists to have a Doctorate. So even if the Master's program is still available, best bet is to do the extra year for the Doctorate.
