How long do schools take...

I have a question for all of you...

How long after your pharmcas application was mailed did schools begin contacting you for an interview?

August was the earliest that I was contacted. It depends on the school and if the school has rolling admissions. Some schools you won't here anything untill around now.

What I meant was, how long after your application was mailed by pharmcas (like "one week" or "7 months") did it take for schools to start contacting you?

I wasn't contacted by any school until I finished their supplemental. And from that point on it was about a week or two. In the case of Shenandoah, it was the next day after I paid my supplemental fee over the phone. It really depends. Some schools that aren't rolling still have not contacted me and I finished everything around September.
