Admission Status

How can I find out if I'm admitted?

You must wait to hear from our office. All applicants will be notified of their admission status as soon as admissions decisions are finalized. We are well aware of how stressful this time can be for applicants, and we do everything we can to complete the process as efficiently as possible. We ask for your help at this time by not contacting us to check on your admission status and by waiting for our notification.

When will I be notified?

Although we do not have rolling admissions, the time frame for receiving your final notice can vary quite a bit. Final decisions are usually mailed by April 1.

How will I be notified?

All applicants receive official notice of their status through a letter sent by regular post.

Can I get my admission status over the phone?

We ask that you not call our office to check on your status.

Can I get an early answer?

We do not have an early decision program. You will have to wait for our notice.

All the people in my pre-pharmacy club have received their notices, but I haven't received anything. Does this mean I've been denied?

Not necessarily. Files are randomly pulled for evaluation. When your file was pulled to be evaluated will affect when you will receive notice of your final admission status. The only conclusion you can draw is that your application was evaluated at a later date than those of your friends.
