I dont see enough people on here talking about their Howard interviews. I interviewed on March 17th. Now all I can do is wait. HELLLLOOO, is anyone out there
 
I know a bunch of you applied to howard university school of pharmacy. Where are you??????
 
I applied. No interview as of yet.
 
There's about 2 other threads for Howard class of 2013. There are a few students who got their acceptance letter right away after their interview, as for others, like me and a few that I met at my interviews, they still haven't recieve anything as of yet.

Please use the search function and you will find all your answers. 🙂
 
Lol! Im on the same boat as you Holy Lights! 😎 I think i actually interviewed that same day as you... or maybe the day after... it was so long ago that i dont even remember anymore haha 😴
 
I interviewed on January. Till today, I have not heard from them. I think that they might have have lost my application.

Yeah, I have no idea what is going on with our application process. I heard that some people got their acceptance letter 1 month after the dated letter was sent out. By then the letter stated that if they don't hear back, they would assume that you don't want to attend Howard.

It's ok, I'm pretty sure everyone will know by april if they get accepted or rejected. Until then, 😴

Right before our tour ms williams said they still were receiving apps, keep in mind this was on 3/17, and that the adcom would be meeting on friday the 20th of march, and that they might need to meet again the next friday. But i called ms williams last thursday and she said they didnt have a second adcom meeting, and that the only thing holding them back was getting all the letters signed and mailed.
 
Yea I interviewed 3/16 and they said 3-4 weeks to hear back but with only 2 people in the office, im planning for later. I got my fingers crossed tho!! :scared:

I interviewed on 3/16 also. I probably saw you/met you, but I'm anxiously awaiting a reply also...:xf:
 
I applied but never heard from them...I was hoping for an interview but have they finished all their interviews for this cycle?

I want to say that they have finished the interviews. But i have a feeling, they are going to have alot of spots open up, because of people declining to go another school. So dont give up just yet

who did you interview with. I was with Dr. olywasu(dont quote me on the spelling), and a nice Korean Lady
 
Sup Frat. Fall 03. I interviewed with Habib and Akala. They grilled me! Habib seemed very uninterested in what I was saying and Akala wouldn't even look at me during the interview. I don't know if they were just seeing how I act under pressure or if they do that to everybody. I must say I did have an answer for all of their questions and never said "I don't know"

HAHAHA, thats funny yo. I keep hearing horror stories out of the group that interviewed with them. My experience was the total opposite. We shoulda be drinking coffee and smoking cigars with our interviewers. Laid back, and super encouraging. We should start hearing something soon

OMG, I had Dr Akala by HIMSELF, I had zero cushion!!!!!! As you can imagine...I still haven't heard back regarding an acceptance. He straight up acted like he DID NOT want to be there that day😕 , so I was lol about your comment!!

I interviewed with Dr. Scott and another lady. I'm sooo glad I didn't have the same experience as other people with different interviewers! They were cool...it was pretty laid back

what day did you interview, im not sure if you told me already.
 
Has anyone called the office lately. I know they said they don't do status updates over the phone but will they tell you if they mailed any letters out?

They definitely dont give status updates over the phone. Most of the adcom is out until monday.(i called yesterday). When did you interview
 
I thought it went well but only time will tell. I had really nice interviewers though and the seemed to like my responses.
 
Just got my acceptance letter today. I have to send my deposit back by 4/13.
 
I just got my acceptance letter today as well. I will be sending my deposit in soon...I feel so relieved! 😀
 
Good luck to everyone who applied. I had my interview on jan. 12 and received my acceptance in the mail on march 11. My letter was dated feb, 26, so just be patient and wait is the best thing to do. They told me it would be a month till I heard from them but that wasnt the case. I remember calling and they give absolutely NO info over the phone about status or even if they mailed out anything. Another thing pay attention to the respond date on the letter, bcuz mine said monday, may 23. At first I didnt catch on but then realized i'm not special to have that long to think about my answer and it turned out to be a typo. So just make sure you stay on top of your stuff and good luck to everyone! see you in the fall
 
I have a question, for those of you who got accepted, did the letter say you have to do the three week summer program?
 
hey what are the tuition fees for international at Howard?
 
I live in VA. I didn't receive anything about a summer program is it required?

My letter was dated for 3 weeks prior to the date I received it, so I think they are sending out letters at different times. So hopefully your letter is in route or they just haven't sent it yet even though it may have been completed awhile ago
 
I got my acceptance letter today!! 😎 I sent in my $600 overnight mail as well. It has to be in by the 13th as well as the application for the scholarship.

I got it yesterday (4/6) by regular mail. It was in a normal envelope. It was dated 3/25 so about 1 week after our interviews. Don't worry MAB you will get in.

CONGRATS!!!! Wow, do you really live that close to Howard, and it still took that long. Thats crazy. Quick Question, Do you have any Pharm experience?
 
Did anyone receive a confirmation that they received your deposit?

Yep, fours years.....i'm pissed off b/c i went to howard to dropp off my deposit but they were closed (good friday), i guess monday is mandatory
 
Really Quick, whats the first letter of Your last name. To all the people who already got in?
 
No. I didn't receive anything from Howard on confirmation of the deposit but I did track it through the post office because I had someone sign for it. Thats how I know they got it.
 
Anyone care to start a Facebook group for the class of 2013? That way we can get to know each other, talking about housing, financial aid, etc. I'd do it myself but I really don't know the ins and outs of Facebook too well, nor do I have the time to learn..

Thats a good idea. I created a group titled Howard Pharmacy 2013. If you search that on facebook it should come up. Its a private group so you have to request to join, but it should be a good way to get to know each other. O and to the other message, my last name begins with J.
