Hello everyone I was accepted into both programs and I am very indecisive as to where I want to attend next year.

I'm from Michigan which is much closer to MWU than Nova. What's the campus social life like at MWU? I heard it was boring?


Nova has cheaper tuition, and a much better campus

I understand there are pros and cons but at this point I'm mostly concerned with prestige and how well respected the schools are. How effective these schools are at placing students into rotations of their preference even out of state ones. Which school gives you more opportunities or better ones to build connections for the future.

Any feedback about each program is appreciated because it would help me make my decision.
 
I am a student at NSU. I can say this rotations are not a problem and Nova is very willing to allow a new site to be a preceptor as long as everything lines up. Great Luck!
 
How's the course load as a p1 student? Do you have weekly exams or are there weeks without any exams? Is it well respected amongst professionals? Would you go to nova if you had the chance to start over again? What are it's cons?
 
There is a lot of work! There are 1-2 exams weekly plus quizzes and small assignments here and there.Overall Pharmacy is a well respected profession and the level of degree is a doctorates. I knew three years before applying to Nova that this was the school I wanted to attend. If I had to choose Nova over again, I WOULD DO IT IN A HEARTBEAT! There will always be room for improvement where ever you go. Nova has recently changed there way of examinations which is now done on iPad and time to time there are issues with the software. I am proud to say I attend Nova Southeastern College of Pharmacy #sharklife
