Campbell-Too late?

Since Campbell's priority deadline is Nov 1, is it basically extremely competitive if I apply now? I have a 3.0 overall GPA, 2.9 Science GPA, and 68% PCAT.

We're in the same boat. I've been eyeballing Campbell too. Before you spend money on an app, call and ask if your GPA and PCAT meet their minimum requirements. Also, ask about the typical candidate invited for an interview.

Although it is pretty competitive to apply now because of Campbell's rolling admissions, there is no hurt in trying. Your GPA low compared to their average incoming student (3.4 overall) but you're on par with their average PCAT (~70%). Do you have pharmacy experience? An undergrad degree? Research experience? Any of this or more will help. Check out the WAMC sticky at the top.

With those stats you don't have good odds. The bottom line is their class is pretty much half-filled before that deadline because they "guarantee" their joint degree students (PharmD/MSCR) a spot in the pharmacy program their second year... Thats like over 2000 applications for maybe 60 seats! So honestly if you really want to go there just drop what your doing and apply to their Masters in Clinical Research program and you'll be in pharmacy school your 2nd year... assuming you pass the courses w/ a C or better.

I know this because I spent four years there... If you want to know anything else just PM me, I don't want to talk smack about a school on a public forum! haha
