i just got an email yesterday saying i was denied....they said received about 600+ applications for only 52 seats. Good luck!
I was denied too ... out of state.
I only applied because my father did his graduate work there.
They have a 7 year age limit on classes... some of mine were older so I was expecting a denial...I thought on the off chance that they noticed my 99% PCAT they might overlook it but apparently not.
1 down, 6 to go... (hopefully they get more positive)

Wow! If they rejected you, then I'm pretty sure I'm toast. I have nothing resembling a 99 composite (that's a big achievement and a great hole card when you interview).
I have lower than a 9% chance if that statistic is right, but I didn't get rejected and they told me that my application is under review (found out yesterday - out of state). I'm sure its just the boilerplate email before they send you the 'Thank you, but we are sorry...' email. 👎
Bonbon...
like I mentioned my undergrad classes are over the 7 year limit, which I'm sure is the reason I got rejected quicksmart. The only emails I received was the "we got your stuff" email and the "we dont want you" email. So you chances are looking good... keep up the positive thoughts.😉

Add me to the list of rejections. Oh well, not my first choice. 😴
Hey everyone, first post so sorry if i dont do this correctly. Just wanted to mention that it appears only rejections have been sent so far. So I guess if you haven't heard anything that is a good thing. Much different from CO (my top choice), where people have only heard acceptances. Anyway, last year people began to get acceptance emails from Wyoming on 2/23. So it looks like we still have a couple weeks to wait.
😀😀I got an invite too!!! 😀 I haven't picked the day yet but they gave me the same options for an interview date. Wow!! I can't believe it!! 😀

I got an invite today too, but I will not be attending because I made my decision to go to Midwestern instead. I wish they would've gotten their invitations out a lot sooner since I would have liked to have toured the school! Does anybody know how many invitations they send out?
I am not sure...I sent an email back with my 1st and 2nd choices for the interview date and I have yet to hear back. Have you heard back from them yet? I wonder if I should call to confirm a date...?
The word is 'no go' for U of Wyoming. I am bummed, but again, it looked very competitive ~ close to 10 percent are accepted. I received word today by e-mail. Congrats to the invitees, I am sure they just want to shake your hand and say 'welcome.'
Hmm... I would at least try emailing again. I actually already got a confirmation email so possibly they missed your email or something. I have another question. On the tuition and fees page, it mentions something about a "150% special rate" which is $6k less for tuition for out of state students. Anyone know what this is?
I got my interview date for Feb 28th!! 😀 Anyone else going this day??
Got an interview at Wyoming! 🙂
march 14
march 14
In my email, they said that interviews were the 25th-29th, and 3rd-7th. Are you sure it was on the 14th?
yeah, they gave me three weeks to choose from!
not sure, but i do know chances are 1/3
didnt know the interview takes pretty much the entire day!

I am not from CO but they accept 20 out-of-state students and 32 in-state...hopefully, we have a good chance!! 😀 I guess it depends on how many they interview!! 😀 Well, good luck.
I'm scheduled for an interview on Mar 7th, does anyone else have the same date?
Yea I'm going on Mar. the 7th also ..... good luck to you
I have to say that this is the best interview I have had yet. The interviewers were very laid back. I felt a little nervous at first, but then it was talking to friends... well really intelligent friends, but friends nonetheless. Best of luck to you!
do you know if the area around school has a night scene?
Ya know, I'm not actually sure. Was a smaller town, but there was plenty of college students around at the campus. I'm not sure exactly how many students go there total, but I met a few interviewees that went to undergrad there and wanted to stay for pharmacy school so my guess is that it cannot be that bad.
However my biggest turnoff was the lack of structured parking. It looks like students park on the streets near campus, and there is no real parking structure. I cannot stand having to fight to get a place to park, and dont understand why campuses cannot fix their parking problems. Another bummer was that living in cheyenne was not a good idea because sometimes the freeway to laramie gets shut down (and there is no bus system from cheyenne to laramie). Traveling to school seems less than pleasant, but the school seems pretty cool. If anyone going to the school knows more about ways to get around the parking, please let me know.
Thank you very much for the information!
I was up there over the weekend before my interview...I dont think it's like your typical college town as far as night life, but maybe I missed the good stuff not knowing where I was...But, there's some pretty cool dive bars in the old part of town and a brewery...There's like 30,000 people there so there has to be someplace decent to go.
I have to agree w/ above, parking was pretty lame...Even before 8am I had trouble finding a place to park without a permit, typical college parking issue though.....

Not to be a hater, but Laramie sucks pretty badly. I took my PCAT at UW and spent quite a bit of time driving around the town...it is quite a dive. I also know two people currently going to UW (one of them in the pharm school) and both aren't all that fond of the town (both say the school itself is fine though).
