Well, you're right about the unprofessional part. But, this is also your chance to demonstrate some personal responsibility and accountability. You made a mistake and you made it the year before matriculation. I'll be honest- it was a pretty stupid thing to do. Marijuana is a psychologically addictive drug and is said to be a "gateway" drug. Whether you believe this or not doesn't matter because it is up to the bigwigs to decide what happens to you. Since you have been accepted to UMN, you need to tell them ASAP- like today. Don't wait for the background check. The dates will come up and they will be wondering why you didn't tell them. The rest you have to take up with the Board of Pharmacy. Good luck.
Do you really think I should call up the dean and explain myself? I think I might be able to get the whole thing expunged from my record before it comes up. I was thinking of asking my interviewer's personal opinion first. Do you think this is wise? Is he required to report it to the Big Wigs? Is there a background check before start of classes in the fall or just after 1st year
