Hi everyone, i'm pretty new to this pharmacy thing. Did a lot of research on it before deciding to major in pharmacy. Anyways, i'm just wondering when is the best time to apply to pharmacy schools? I'm finishing up my first year of pre-regs right now. Do i have to wait uptil i'm done to apply or can i apply now?

Hi!
Nightwalk8r,
I am a Pre-Pharm, too. This year the PharmCAS applications period started on June 15, 2004. So, if you're applying to pharmacy schools who are participating in PharmCAS, then apply as soon as PharmCAS apps. period starts. For those schools who are not participating in PharmCAS, they have their own application period date. Apply as soon as applications available. It is always good to apply early because there are lot of applicants. Check with the schools you're applying to for their applications period.
I hope this helps!

The thing with applying is that you should apply for fall 2005 entrance ONLY IF you will be able to complete all of your prereqs prior to then. You mentioned that you are finishing your first year of prereqs. Will you be finished with those in time to enter pharmacy school in Aug/Sept? If not, then you should apply next June-ish when PharmCAS opens for the 2006 cycle.
