Hey everybody!
How long till may 1st? not long enough!
I've narrowed it down to two pharmacy schools: St Johns University (NYC) or Butler University (Indianapolis).
I know i have to decide on my own, but any words of advice? How did others make the final decison?
It would be MUCH appreciated.
Thanks!

Butler is mad difficult to get into if you're an out-of-state resident. They only take 10 a year.

St. John's is non-PharmCAS -- an advantage as the applicant pool will be less. Being from Massachusetts though, you really should look at Massachusetts College of Pharmacy -- Boston. My pharmacist graduated from there in '99 and raves about it and the campus all the time. Great school.

St.Johns is a good school, but again if you are from Massachusetts, you would most probably dorm or rent an apt... and St.Johns is not located in the area you would want to dorm or live..honestly.

Butler rocks and crossjb is right, Butler typically takes 5 or less students per year. I absolutely love Butler and I can't say enough good things about it. The professors actually know who you are and they are always available to meet with you if you have concerns or if you just want to chit chat. If you have any questions feel free to pm me...

My vote's for Butler!
