What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

"I would recommend removing the $95 supplemental application supplied by the college. Consider including it in the pharmCAS application or lowering the cost of it. The price of applying is too high when you take into account the pharmCAS fee, supplimental application fee, transcripts sent it, etc." More from this Member | Report Response

"I had wonderful interviewers. They seem to have a genuine concern for the interviewees and they are" More from this Member | Report Response
