Is there really no interest in these forums for WSU? I was hoping to help out a few candidates this incoming year!

I sent out my supplemental last month. I'm just waiting for them to tell me if I get an interview or not.

Hello, and thank you for setting up a forum for prospective pharmacy students applying this year! I also sent my supplemental application in about a month ago and am just waiting to hear about an interview!

It was awesome how the supplemental application was all online! Super convenient and easy to use and manage!

Any UW students apply to WSU? What classes did you take for the anatomy and physiology requirements? I took BIOL118/119 and planning on taking BSTR301 but not sure what if that fulfills the requirements. I'm waiting to hear back from their pre-pharm advisor but I am just curious to see what other students took.

Biol 118 & 119 are so basic, which do not count toward anatomy and physiology requirements. You have to take BSTR301 for anatomy, biol 350 & 460 for physiology. If not, you can take A&P 241 & 242 at community college, which fulfill the anatomy & physiology prerequisites. Good luck :)

By the way, I have a transfer guide for UW. If you want I can send it to you so you can see what courses are accepted for the completion of the WSU pre-reqs.

I applied about a month ago and I'm waiting to hear back also. I'm not sure how accurate this is, but my friends who applied last year and got in said that WSU took a lot longer to tell them about their interviews and about the outcome of their interviews than other schools did. It could be different this year, but we'll just have to see!

I don't think they're doing any interviews on Mondays. Are you sure it was Feb 28th? I'm thinking you might have misread Jan 28th.

I am just finishing my pre-p classes. Doing last Ochem this spring. I currently have a 3.6 GPA and am hoping to bring that up more this spring. I'm an Idaho resident and work in a hospital pharmacy. Now I'm waiting to see if I get an interview. I'm a mother of three who returned to school 18 years after my last son started grade school, pretty scared and excited of the future, cant be any harder than the last two years of classes I've taken to fulfill WSU requirements. I will be taking my pcat exam this Saturday!
I see some have already got an email, congrats, and hope your interview goes well. I will continue to pray I get one soon:)

I probably won't be attending the interview. I already have an acceptance and the dates they gave me really don't fit well with my school schedule.

I got an email invite for the interview with the option of either 1/28 or 2/4. I'm not sure if 1/28 is the first interview date, but I'm planning on going on that day.

For those that are also interviewing, have you been told which campus you're being interviewed at? And where are you staying?

On the off chance that someone here has an interview in the pullman campus on 2/4, I'll be your student ambassador. I remember being disappointed last year that there was no formal "tour" so I'll be happy to show anyone interested the main rooms and section of campus you will likely be in for most of your first year.

PM me if you're interested.

Yah, the website says the letters will come out in mid March, but at the interview they said they'd reply in about 2-3 weeks. I'm crossing my fingers (and my toes) now!
I had the interview at Spokane campus and really liked it.

Pullman was great! The interview process was excellent. Many of the students made themselves available so we could ask questions, and a lot of the faculty came out to meet everybody! (excellet snacks too). I love the Spokane campus as well. Pullman is definitely smaller than Spokane as far as size goes, but Pullman has a great "small town atmosphere" (and it's not all that far away from Spokane). Both locations are great and I look forward to studying at both of them if I am accepted!

Can any of current students give advice about housing? I'm assuming all of our classes will be at Wegner, right? I would like live as close to Wegner as possible.

Will I need a car? I'm coming from California, so I'm hoping to avoid bringing a car for the first year, at least.

Hello! I went to WSU for my undergrad and I am starting Pharmacy school in the fall here. The public transportation is okay (I lived off campus for my undergrad and will too for pharmacy school) and I took the bus or walked almost every day. You can buy a parking pass too if you want to drive, Green parking is close to Wagner but they are EXPENSIVE, but worth it in the winter...which is most of the year, lol. I had a red parking pass and it’s about a 10 min walk or less to Wagner. There are dorms close to Wagner most are about a 5-10min walk. If you want to live off campus there is some houses nearby to rent and apartment complexes a little further away but its Pullman nothing is too far lol. See ya in August!

Hi,

I am currently a Junior doing my undergrad at UW. I have a few pre-reqs left and going to take the PCAT this July and apply. I am very interested in going to Pharmacy School at WSU. It is my number one choice. If any current pharmacy students can give me advice on improving my chances please?
