Section 392-2-6-A-1-4 - Qualifications for Licensure

1.Matriculation

As part of the application, the applicant shall present to the board written verification of matriculation in a professional academic degree program described in Section 2 of this subchapter. Maintenance of matriculation is an ongoing requirement of licensure. A license issued under this chapter automatically terminates upon a student's dropping out of or expulsion from pharmacy school.

2.Disciplinary History; Criminal Convictions Involving Controlled Substances

The applicant shall supply verification of licensure or registration for all states in which the applicant has at any time held any type of professional or occupational license. The board may refuse to license and may refuse to renew the license of an applicant:

A. Whose professional or occupational license or registration has been denied, revoked, suspended or restricted in any jurisdiction for disciplinary reasons; or

B. Who has been convicted of a crime involving alcohol or drugs. This restriction is subject to consideration and waiver by the board upon presentation of satisfactory evidence that the conviction does not impair the ability of the person to conduct, with safety to the public, the duties of a pharmacy intern.

[NOTE: The effect of a criminal conviction on an applicant's eligibility for licensure is governed generally by the Occupational License Disqualification on Basis of Criminal Record law, 5 MRSA §5301 et seq.]
