Personal reasons are fine. Usually the preferences are personal such as "my wife and children live in Jacksonville".

hi,
thanks so much for replying. i really appreciate it.
 
Unless you are trying for Gainesville don't worry too much about getting the campus of your choice. I don't know anyone who was denied a satellite campus choice but do know plenty who wound up in other places but wanting to go to Gainesville. I doubt they will uproot you if you have a job, home, family in the area.

I hope you are right! I am hoping for St Pete, because my husband works here, and my daughter goes to school here...
 
How does one answer the question: "Briefly, describe what you can contribute to the University of Florida College of Pharmacy as a pharmacy student. Concisely state why the Admissions Committee should invite you to attend the College of Pharmacy"?
I am having serious trouble answering this. What can I contribute to a pharmacy school other than my money, my brain and my time?
I guess I just don't quite get exactly what it is they want to know here! help!! Anyone!

I've come across that one on a couple of supplemental apps and was stumped for months. I finally took it as an opportunity to brag about myself a little (and provide information to back it up). I think they're looking for, in part, a feel for how self-confident you are. Pick something you really like about yourself (with respect to academia or profession) and talk about it.
