I haven't seen a current thread.. who is planning on applying for class of 2016? Although I live in California and have never been to Montana this is one of my top schools. I love the idea of a small university with a lot of history and surrounded by mountains. Anyone from Montana who can give me more insight?

Im thinking about applying! Do you know if you participate with pharmcas at all? if they don't how do you get pcat scores mailed to them?

You order a report from Pearson and they send it to the school(s) of choice.
 
If anyone has been accepted to this school, please let me know so you can be added to the Official Roll Call for Class of 2015/2016. Please post in the sticky thread your acceptances and the program you will be attending (if accepted to multiple schools).

Here is the link to the sticky thread:

Has anyone received an interview invite yet? Their date is set for March 17th so I am hoping to hear something by at least Monday.
 
Yay, just got my interview invite! Good thing cause I bought my plane ticket last week :O
 
How did the interviews go for everyone? Hopefully we hear very soon!!
 
I think the interview went good, I was very nervous but they joked around a lot and made me feel comfortable. But hopefully not too comfortable. They said we should expect to hear from them by Friday or Monday. Hopefully Friday cause the anticipation is killing me!
 
Got my acceptance in the (snail) mail today!!!!! I am so so so so so so so so EXCITED!!!!!!! I can't wait to move to Montana this summer, it is such a good school/program and was my number one choice. I can't believe they get so few applicants. Too bad hardly anyone from Montana comes on here to celebrate with me!

I'm from Montana 😀

Congrats on your acceptance, have fun in Missoula!
 
I went to Missoula for two years of pre-pharmacy. I applied and was accepted there, but I went to UC-Denver instead. I don't know much about the professors there, but it seems like the people I know who are in their pharmacy school have said it isn't too bad. I have no idea how they do acceptances, but in-state tend to get preference (I have seen people with far better credentials than myself not get accepted). So, I wish you guys the best of luck.
 
Is there a Facebook group for the U of M pharmacy class of 16?
 
So I am here in Missoula ready to start my pharmacy journey. Anyone out there who wants to meet up this summer and hang out? I don't know anyone here and it would be nice to have some friends.
 
Hey guys I will be starting my application for Montana in about a month or so. I was wondering if those of you that did get accepted mind telling me what your GPA or Pcat scores were? I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks!
