UOP - What rank of Wait list?

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Wait listed in the middle portion for UOP. Chances are slim to none 🙁 At least i got one acceptance so far.

Where did everyone go?............Brazil?.....Carnaval?......It has been another day in paradise! Just don't subsitute anti-anxiety meds with antidepressants.........

Any statistics on UOP waitlisted or rejecting students? 😴 :laugh:
 
hey guys~ is anyone here waitlisted for other schools as well as uop?
 
Yes, Alternate - Western U of HS! 🙂
 
For some perspective, may I ask why everyone here wants to go to uop?
 
Yup,

Rejected from too many schools.

UOP is the only school giving me some kind of chance.
 
Let us all maintain a positive outlook for the weeks ahead! 👍

It would be comforting to know how many students have rejected their spaces - please share any statistics that you come across.

The lastest figures indicate between 5-10 people were pulled off the waiting list - If anyone can support those figures or update the numbers please advise us. 🙂
 
Excuse me for sounding negative, but I heard UOP only accepts 100 students who are applying for 1st year grad pharm. You may think 100 is a lot, but then imagine the number of applicants. They say that the number of people who meet the requirements to go to UOP can be filled with just Vietnamese last names alone.

But good luck to all of you!

Thank you for sharing your thoughts - Are you on waiting list for UOP?

If yes, can you specify which rank - top, middle, or lower portion.

I think negatively, too. yeah....they only accepts 100 outside of their pre-pharm program. I am in the top portion but I think my chance is slim. I have been accepted to Purdue but....still waiting for UOP b/c it's so close to my home......>.<

Guys, forget about the negative thoughts - they only attract negative consequences - think positive! It tends to attract better ones, OK!

Here is the scoop. UOP has 200 spots for Pharm.D program. 90-110 of these can be given to UOP Pre-pharmacy graduates.

Currently all spots have been filled - they have all received acceptance letters. Though there are always some that reject their spots for one reason or another.

As per SDN 9 students have rejected their spots as yet - and I am sure a few more will reject from the pool of accepted applicants. Only time will tell.

It is a waiting game - some students tend to change their mind as the matriculation date nears.

Don't lose hope - have faith! Stay focused on whatever you are doing - if in school concentrate on your finals - you GPA is crucial!

If you are just waiting around and completed your pre-reqs - I hope you are working in a pharmacy and learning more about the pharmacist profession and acquainting yourselves with as many medication names/dosages as possible.

Worrying yourselves into a dark hole is not the solution!

Most of us may have to reapply! Good luck everyone. :luck: 🙂

Prospective and Eskylama Congratulations!!!!!!!!!!!

The waiting has paid off! You folks are on the way to make your dreams come true! Patience is definitely a virtue - as you have both found out.

It seems UOP is finally filling pulling ppl off the wait list.

For the rest of us......the heat is on.........it should be closing in! Hang in there!

Thanks for sharing your updates and the best of luck. :luck: 😍

I sent in my updated winter quarter grades with the waitlist form. I also finished my last pre-req in the winter quarter.
 
Anyone rejecting their space after being accepted/waitlisted?

Anyone contacted by UOP Admin after being pulled off the wait list?

Please guys, your input is crucial during these difficult and straining times.

Any thoughts would be welcome.........just keep them positive! 🙂
 
So for nearly a week later....does this mean that nobody has heard anything from UOP or their friends....I mean a n y t h i n g, nada, nein,yok,voch,nicht,lah,da,no .............wow!

Snail mail or snail pace .... call it what you will.......this wait is not fun!

Before any of you give up...........I just heard Hawaii (Hilo) is still accepting apps for '07 - check it out!

More waiting...................😎
 
For those of you who are waiting, is UOP your # 1 choice?
 
Hey there PharmD101, will you re-apply in June??? :beat: It will be the 3rd time for me!!

Most definitely! "It is elementary Mr. Watson!"

Stop beating yourself to death.....like a dead horse! Life goes on....to succeed in life you must try and try again!

It is an extremely competitive and massive pool of ppl applying to pharmacy schools.

This is my first year applying. I am on two wait lists. The fact of the matter is only so many students can matriculate with thousands applying!

It is the norm not to get in in the first two or maybe three tries, as one Adcom Administrator hinted.

You have to show motivation, commitment and the potential drive to become a pharmacist. That is what they are seeking. So clean it up and re-apply with confidence. That is the trick word...........confidence.


I know you all heard this line before......but the requirements are the same all over and they aren't gonna change overnight. Stand tall and be positive.
You will be proud you stuck with it.

On the other hand the Universities know you are re-applying and are looking for a good-fit profile that makes you stand out among the herd of applicants!

"When the going gets tough.....the tough re-apply!"

Beating a dead horse won't cut it...........:laugh:
gluck! :luck: 🙂

Recently Eskylama was accepted: she provided me with the following UOP requirements:

1. Health history and physical examination
2. Tuberculosis clearance (PPD test)
3. Measles, Mumps, Rubella - MMR
4. Tetanus/Diptheria (Td)
5. Diptheria/Tetanus & Pertusis (DTap)
6. Hepatitis B (Need three injections - takes 6-months, though you can get in with the first two)
7. Meningococcal Vaccine
8. Varicella (Chicken Pox)

That should keep you busy for the next sixty days....hope you have health Ins! gluck. :luck: 🙂

Thanks azpixie for filling us in on the latest update from UOP ~ It was getting awfully quiet around here!

Sharing info is the way to go...........leads to good teamwork......in pharmacy!
 
How many waitlisted have been pulled as yet, any clues? 😕
 
🙁
I had a loooonggg conversation w/ Veronica about admission to T.J. Long

-No one has cancelled.

-The trend is that last year.....it was the same situation cancellations came in June and they only took a few off the waiting list. Its getting more and more competitive. I COULD HAVE APPLIED 4 YEARS AGO W/ THE MINIMAL RQUIREMENTS-I PROBABLY WOULD HAVE BEEN DONE BY NOW!!!!!!!!!!! AHHH! 😡😡😡 Thats just the way things work.

-She said the only HOPE is if students from their own program dont meet the requirement.....and then again thats only like 5 ppl w/ a miracle.

- I am in the process of re-applying FOR THE 3rd TIME-I FEEL LIKE SUCH A LOSER!

All we can do is re-apply. What I feel like:


Sitting on this barstool talking like a damn fool
Got the twelve oclock news blues
And Ive given up hope on the afternoon soaps
And a bottle of cold brew
Is it any wonder Im not crazy? is it any wonder Im sane at all
Well Im so tired of losing- I got nothing to do and all day to do it
I go out cruisin but Ive no place to go and all night to get there
Is it any wonder Im not a criminal?
Is it any wonder Im not in jail?
Is it any wonder Ive got

Too much time on my hands, its ticking away with my sanity
Ive got too much time on my hands, its hard to believe such a calamity
Ive got too much time on my hands and its ticking away from me
Too much time on my hands, too much time on my hands
Too much time on my hands

Well, Im a jet fuel genius - I can solve the worlds problems
Without even trying
I have dozens of friends and the fun never ends
That is, as long as Im buying
Is it any wonder Im not the president
(hes not the president)
Is it any wonder Im null and void?
Is it any wonder Ive got

Too much time on my hands, its ticking away at my sanity
Ive got too much time on my hands, its hard to believe such a calamity
Ive got too much time on my hands and its ticking away from me
Too much time on my hands, too much time on my hands
Too much time on my hands
 
BanBidil - what tier were you when you applied? and do you know what rank you were on the wait list? do you mind sharing your stats? tia

BanBidil you are too wise to quit now! Believe me I cannot tell you how many sleepless nights, migraine headaches, and a sleugh of gut wrenching pains I have endured...........and it is still not over!

But this is what brings the toughness out of us. Compare it to the process of hardening steel.............you make it red hot and then you beat it hard with the good old sledge hammer and you repeat this process a few times till you achieve the right configuration in metallurgy.

Now on our end this is the acid test! We have to endure the pain now and accept it because once over this hump we can prove we are fit for such a rigorous course that will really hurt and burn just as bad...maybe worse for some!

Come july there will be more than five people off the waitlist - last month just from SDN we know three got pulled so as people send in their transcripts and finalize their acceptance registration I know more will change their mind - for a fact!

I would definitely recommend reapplying in the meantime. Hope this helps.

Guys you are all free to purge your gut feelings right here - and spare the pain - basically an antidepressant!🙂

Since we have so much time on our hands let us turn this into a semi-therapy session - we could all benefit!


Who's next?:laugh:

i hope it's not the end yet and you're right. If I do end up getting in, i will be the happiest person in the world. For now, it is very painful playing the waiting game. Best wishes to you all.
 
hey guys are you reapplying to uop right now also? what have you kept the same in the supplemental application? is Veronica the person to talk to about how good your supplemental app papers were?

good luck to everyone!

Yes, I am reapplying. Supplemental App will have some minor changes. Talk to any counselor in Admissions regarding your suppl app.
Though if you are in the neighborhood UOP is holding an information session on how to fill the supplemental app on June 23 - this Saturday!
