I wanted to get a forum started for those enrolling at PacificU to start Fall 2014. I have submitted my PharmCAS applications to be sent to Pacific University, University of the Pacific, California Northstate, and Touro (CA). I would rather not attend school in California so PacificU is my #1 choice.

no you still wont get in
 
I know at least 2 current pharmacy students at Pacific got accepted without Ochem at the time they applied (because I took the same Ochem class with them hehe). So yes, you definitely can get in. However, academic performance is just a part of a big picture. Work on your personal statement and interview skills, those things will help you get a seat in Class of 2017.
 
no you wont get in trust me

I heard the same thing too BUT I recently met some OSU pharmacy interns and they do hate their program hehe:laugh:
 
I have been checking every day to see if it is up. I am assuming the words will turn into a link like the PharmCAS portion is on their website. The site use to say "The supplemental application will be available in early July" and it was changed like a week ago to say "The supplemental application will be available in July."

I have not, and I submitted it the first weekend it was made available. I think that any time in the next 1-3 weeks we could be hearing something

Sweeeeet... thanks for the good luck and good luck to ya'll back!
 
Hey Kaidou1412,

What do you know about being a pharmacist in the army? I'm almost positive my wife will never go for having me join (and they say don't join if your wife won't support the decision), but I still think it is interesting. On the army website it says that if you are a pharmacist in the army they will pay for $40,000 a year for tuition up to three years... which ironically is the tuition of PacificU!

one quick tip, currently army shut down incentives for nurses. what i can expect in 5 years is cut incentives of pharmacist too or maybe already no incentives. why? there are too many surplus of pharmacists.
anyways, yes you can have up to 120k loan repayment with 6 years of ADSO. by having residency option, you will have additional 2 years of ADSO. but what i know is that army does not pay for the loan interest.

more likely you will be an admin pharmacist of one section as O-3 captain. which means you will do regular pharmacist job + supervising role of your section. To me, Air Force is better option but they have no open spot currently.

I couldn't find it. Any way you can post a link?
 
Well, knowing that you won't doesn't do any good does it?!

Well, there is the option of not knowing for sure but thinking that it's highly likely. A "probably" in the earlier statement would've created less confusion. A+ for confidence though.

Sorry i was just confused because I didn't know someone could know they'd get an interview or not before the committee even told. But good luck though!
