Ugh then i think i didnt get in :-/Congrats , really congrats
Probably I screwed up my interview.... :/ just email Kerry, she said alternative list... Not even waiting list.... Ughdon't worry, they have many spots so you will hear very good news soon, I think you should email them and inform them how much Midwestern means to you, I'm sure this can help you a lot, I hope you hear good news soon
Alternative list is the same as waiting list, Waiting list is for people that their application are hold and they have not receive interview and alternative list is for after interview( so don't worry),"They create alternate lists in case one of the people they accepted decides to pull their acceptance late in the game,This is how they insure that their class will be filled at the time of matriculation."( I copied this part from below address)Probably I screwed up my interview.... :/ just email Kerry, she said alternative list...

Also another thing, you can send another recommendation letter from your professors or pharmacist ,I have heard that helps a lot.Probably I screwed up my interview.... :/ just email Kerry, she said alternative list... Not even waiting list.... Ugh

so don't worry, I'm sure many people are accepted other pharmacy schools so withdraw or ignore their MW acceptance , you just need to contact admission by phone or email constantly and inform them how much MW is important for you and your education, don't lose hope I'm sure you hear very good news soon
I think I know you , are you from IL and taking courses in COD?I recently got accepted. I will be withdrawing my application though because I got accepted into my top choice. It should open up a spot Good luck everyone!
Well I'm from Chicago but I'm currently taking courses at Wright College. I was interviewed on February 20I think I know you , are you from IL and taking courses in COD?

don't worry at all, they have many spots, just focus on your interview and you definitely be fine, be relaxed and yourself , review interview questions for MidwesternHello,
I just received my interview date for April 24th, I believe this is the last day of interviews. I am so nervous because it's the last day and I feel like all seats might already be filled. What do you think?!! Any advice?!
http://schools.studentdoctor.net/school/mwu-ccp/survey/26#survey-resultThank you so much for the fast reply!! That's all iv been worried about the fact that it may be way too late and my chances are less. But thank you! Where can I possibly find questions?
It is very laid back, it is group interview, just review questions from the siteThank you so much for the fast reply!! That's all iv been worried about the fact that it may be way too late and my chances are less. But thank you! Where can I possibly find questions?
They also asked me what I want to get out from the program. Just practice all questions and show them your interest in their school. also, Ask them a question at the end of the interview. try to add new ideas when you answer why MW. and make friends haha. Good luck!Hello,

Sorry for the double postI did my interview way back in the beginning of March and heard from them a week later. Fortunately I was accepted into the school. So for those of you who are still doing their interview for this school dont lose hope
I have been waitlisted for an interview since February. I sent in a letter of continued interest and spoke to an advisor who told me based on the Deans notes on my application everything looked really good but my PCAT was too low (40th percentile). I am not sure where you heard about this "experiment" but it must not apply to the Glendale campus.I am currently a PS-1 and I want to give you some insight and reduce some of the stress that a lot of you are going through and that I have gone through. Not sure if this was mentioned before, but Midwestern University is actually doing an "experiment" where they are trying to see if PCAT scores correlate to how well a student will do in the pharmacy program. Therefore, they have been accepting students from the past 4 years with PCAT scores averaging starting from 70, then the next year 60, 50, 40 and so forth. Our class's PCAT average was 40 and GPA was around 2.9-3.1 so they accepted a lot of people with low PCAT scores as well as high scores obviously. There are students accepted here that had a 25 on their PCAT, and bare minimum GPA. So they are barely looking at credentials, mostly how you do in your interview and extracurricular activities. Just "sell it", and they'll eat it up like cake, and help each other out. You're in a group. If someone is telling a story, look at them, act interested, and ask questions to the other student... its like a group conversation! and make sure you ask a question at the end obviously to the interviewer. Its March, and there are interviews still waiting to be given out. If you guys would like some stuff such as supplemental essay answers, interview questions and answers, questions to ask at the end of the interview, or any questions about Midwestern and the program in general just message me. I'll help you to the best of my ability
I 'm sure you will get in MW , don't lose your hopeI have been waitlisted for an interview since February.

Hey when was your interview?I was accepted and have sent in my deposit. Looking forward to meeting everyone! To those who know the area well, where are some good places to live? Also, does the school provide any sources for finding roommates?
Thanks!
It was a month ago or so.Hey when was your interview?
There's only a supplemental once you are accepted I believeI guess no supplemental application then! I checked supplement application link, nothing's there.
I was confused because i thought MWU CCP doesnt require supplemental according to pharmcas.
But when i talked to admission's office person, he/she told me there is one.
I guess it changed
thanks!
I too had the same PCAT score but I got accepted. I guess because my chemistry and biology were 80%.

Just received notice that Midwestern had concluded their interviews and end of cycle letters will be sent out soon. Congrats to everyone that got accepted!
I am! Do you know if the school offers any database or anything to look for roommates?Is anyone looking for a roommate?
I'm also from California and will be new to the area. Did you end up finding a roommate or housing? If so, where at? Thanks in advance!Hi, is anyone still looking for a roommate? I'm from California and will be new to the area. Message me so we can search for a place together or if anyone has a place/room available for me. Thanks!
Hi, did you end up finding a place to stay? If so, which apartment would you recommend? I'm starting my housing search and it's a bit challenging as I can't physically be there to look until I'm ready to move in.Is anyone looking for a roommate?
