Steps for applying to pharmacy schools,

1) PharmCAS application submit
2) PharmCAS verifies your course work
3) PharmCAS transmits your information to your designated pharmacy schools (Your schools already have access to your information on PharmCAS but I think this just makes it more official)
4) Your pharmacy schools start sending you information on submitting supplemental (additional essays) and supplemental fees ($0 - $50 about)
5) Once your supplemental is received, you start getting emails on how everything is progressing (such as, we received your supplemental essays, we are reviewing them, etc)
6) Interview invites sent out
7) Interview
8) Waiting period. Sometimes only one week until decision is made, other times may take months
9) You are either accepted, rejected, or waitlisted

GL with your application process! Please feel free to correct my post if anything is amiss.

Basically, supplemental dates, interview dates and acceptance dates are all DIFFERENT. You will need to look through previous year's pharmacy school forum to guesstimate when those dates are. (I had schools start interviewing in August and then as late as March)
