I am hoping someone can clear up my confusion. I want to apply to pharmacy school for the Fall 2017 class. I am studying for my pcat right now and hope to take them late october. I was reading that the deadline to submit the pharmacy application is Nov 1st. Would I be eligible to apply this cycle or would I be pushed back to next cycle?

As long as you submit PharmCAS before the deadline you are good. Your lors and pcat can post later. There is a deadline for early decision and one for regular admision.

I was hoping to have my application completed and submitted by late Oct. And usually how long does it take to get back PCAT scores?

After Pearson releases the PCAT score, do you know how long it takes to post to PharmCAS and post your application as completed? Is it right away or is there a delay for that as well?

I think it was a 1-2 week delay for mine (I took it in July)

So in order to submit by the Nov 1st deadline, you would need to be verified before that?
