Well, if your GPA is at least a 3.0 (3.2 or 3.3 to be safe) I wouldn't worry about your app and you should get an interview. Then again, I don't know how tough the admission process is later in the game, probably tougher to get into later.
Thanks for that info. My GPA is currently at 3.2. Did horrible in my PCATS but I'm glad Worcester doesn't require it. I'm still hoping for the best
I received my acceptance letter today!. I live in AZ and interviewed on December 2nd. For those still waiting. I know the waiting hurts, but not hearing anything yet is still a positive. Good luck!
Congrat Brian! Just got ur email! I'm so happy for u! Now my turn to prepare for my interview. So have youdecide which school u go to?
Hello, do you mind sharing your stat?? I applied back in November but pharmcas haven't even mailed my application yet although all my transcripts were submitted to pharmcas on time. I am so worried that this will decrease my chance of even getting an interview since I know that MCPHS has a rolling admission. But I hope my stats will outweigh it.
thanks for the info. When you have a minute. Can you post the name of that apt complex that is on main street.
I received a snail mail letter about 4 days after my interview that was dated the day after the interview. They generally do not call. My acceptance letter was a large envelope...so look for that. Good luck. I know the waiting is tough...
pharmcas will email you when your application is complete. Generally within one week of that email, they send out the package to designated schools. You may be missing other items besides the transcripts. Just call them, they are very helpful.Hello, do you mind sharing your stat??

I didn't get any call and i did not call them, but my acceptance letter came 5 days after my interview. So yours might be on the way to you. Goodluck
I'm trying to figure out where to live too. I've been looking to outside areas such as shrewsbury, milbury, and grafton which are all within 15-20 min away. I've also looked at living in the city of worcester in those high rise apt's, but most of the apts that I have seen near the school don't have washer/dryers in the unit. If anyone knows of some apt's that have w/d in them, that are nice, and are closer to the school...please let me know. thanks
not sure....but many people on sdn have stated student housing is expensive to live. At least no drive though. I wasn't interested in student housing at my interview so they really didn't go over costs, etc. Does anyone know the official start date.
A friend of mine was able to get a studio at 25 Foster, but the rent is expensive (over 11K per year). 25 Foster is better if you like to have a kitchen. But getting a single at 25 Foster is very doubtful. Most 1st years get in the higher person rooms because everything is on a lottery system. Off campus housing can be cheaper, especially if you can find roommates. If you get off-campus housing that requires you to drive in, just know that on-campus is parking is VERY limited, and residents get priority. Most off-campus students won't get parking permits. The local garages run about $100 a month for parking vs. on-campus which is $120 a semester.
thanks for the great info.
