i haven't been offered an interview yet (or actually applied yet for that matter), but do the pharmacy schools usually pay for the flight/hotel if they offer you an interview? i know that science grad schools do, but i'm not sure about pharmacy school because professional students get the shaft when it comes to financial aid. I'm having trouble paying for tuition and rent right now, so i probably couldn't afford flying to an interview. thanks for your answers.

No... they don't pay for your flight and hotel. It would be nice if they did!

Financial aid offered me more than enough for the full amount, almost $50,000/year. I think you'll find plenty of available money for most future health professionals while they are in school.

No, schools will not pay for you to come and interview. They have plenty of people vying for the positions, and they don't need to pay for accommodations.

wow, what school offered you that? I always assumed pharm schools dont give much financial aid and I'd have to take out loans.

We go the same school (though different pathways) and yes, you can get good loans if you have the need and necessary history.

To the OP, I don't know of any schools don't pay for interview travel accommodations. They may advise you on living establishments, but that's about it.
