💬 Interview Process
What is one of the specific questions they asked you?
Why Shenandoah? Why pharmacy? What impact do you hope to make as a pharmacist.
What was the most interesting question?
How did I feel about my previous schools conduct and ethical policies? Seemed a little random. I have never actually read my schools student handbook.
How did you prepare for the interview?
SDN, Shenandoah website, wrote out my responses to most common questions and reviewed them.
What impressed you positively?
Admissions coordinator was EXTREMELY nice and helpful. She came and introduced herself to me before I was interviewed by the current student and faculty member. She gave me some pointers and told me some questions they will probably ask that I should think about. She also told me the committee would be making decisions the following Wednesday and I should hear something the Friday after that.
