Midway college in Paintsville, KY announced last night that they are delaying the opening yet again. They also told all the students that have been accepted that they will need to reapply for the program.
I applied through PharmCAS, interviewed with them, then received an acceptance letter from them in the Spring of 2011. I moved over 1000 miles in anticipation of the school opening. Then came the delays. Now they are saying I will have to reapply? It's hard to believe they would do this to us.
This is not really relevant for most of you, but I thought I should post it here as a warning to all of those who are thinking about applying to the new schools. This failure ranks right up there with the Hawaii College of Pharmacy debacle.
There are people who quit their jobs and moved from the west coast to go to this school. I know of several who bought houses in the area after being accepted... and now they are saying we have to reapply.
