Partially Paid Pharmacy School Tuition?

[Stephen Kun]

If a pharmacy school wants you bad enough will they partially pay for your tuition? I currently have over a 4.0 GPA and just finished the PCAT today with a composite preliminary score of 433 (95th percentile). Gauging the average GPA and PCAT scores of accepted students to certain schools I'm assuming that I'm moderately more competitive over most applicants. I have a friend that went to law school at ASU and they completely paid for his tuition because they wanted him so bad. I know its not comparing apples to apples, but was just wondering if anyone has any experience in this.

They barely give out scholarships. Competitive pharmacy students are a dime a dozen unfortunately.

What would their $100,000+ be buying?

A couple classmates got need-based awards, had to apply during 1st year, give family financial info, etc.

Never expect anything substantial from pharmacy school.

GPA of over 4.0. What does this even mean

I have a friend who got a scholarship to the private pharmacy school she applied to, but it only equated to the difference in tuition between the private school and the other public school in our state. So really nothing significant.
