HI all:
I've recently submitted my PCAT application, but during the process, there was a box asking for my SSN.
I am Canadian, so we don't have the SSN, but the SIN. In addition, the format for the SIN is XXX-XXX-XXX, whereas in the SSN box, it went XXX-XX-XXXX. I wasn't sure whether SSN = SIN, since the formats are different, so i checked off no SSN.
From what I read, the SSN is needed by PharmCAS to send PCAT scores to schools (corect me if I'm wrong). However, the schools I applied to are not part of PharmCAS, so I don't know whether or not my application is doomed from the outset due to this small mistake.
If it helps any, the schools I applied to were:
University of British Columbia
University of Toronto
University of Montreal
Any help is appreciated!
