I send it in right before the deadline (around 1/27) and they asked me for an on campus interview a month later. I found out I got waitlisted 5 days after my interview

anybody else apply to their 6 year program as a transfer? I haven't heard anything back yet, and have no one else to compare with.

Why are you going to a 6 year program from UCLA? Why not worcester?

I applied as a transfer to their 4-year program
You apply to their 6 year program as a transfer from college?

i am only a freshman at UCLA; so its best for me to try and transfer to their 6 year program. I can't apply to the other schools because i have not finished prereqs etc.

Finish your degree at UCLA!!!

It is good to have. It will probably set you apart when you are going to get promoted to higher pharmacy positions like pharmacy manager, etc.

My GPA is around a 3.6. I was wondering for your 2 friends that got off the waitlist, when were they notified of their admission?

thanks!

Make MCPHS Boston your safety school.


1) Disorganized - administration in paper work
2) Over 250 students (One building yet huge classes, ironic)
3) Some classes are pointless
4) Lowest average NAPLEX nationwide, according to a professor

i believe they heard around the 2nd or third week in may

 

[kingroger317]

still haven't heard from them.. anybody else?

I freaked out after I saw your point #4 and I called MCPHS directly; they reassured me that their NAPLEX is above national average. Would a school lie about their NAPLEX scores since NAPLEX averages aren't released to the public anyways?
