"How do you think the field of pharmacy is changing?"
"Why pharmacy?"
"They only had the PharmCAS essay, so they normally started with a comment or two on that. One lady told everybody who talked to her that that she didn't like their essay."
"How do you manage stress?"
"What do you do in your free time?"
"What was one of your most embarrassing moments and how did you handle it?"
"What is one quality a pharmacist should have?"
"What is a weakness?"
"What is a possible advantage of your communication style? Disadvantage?"
"What one quality is important in a pharmacist?"
"Why do you want to be a pharmacist?"
"Describe a situation in which you had to make a difficult decision or find a creative solution."
"None of the questions were particularly difficult. Maybe leadership because I really didn't have any."
"Tell me about a specific time when you had a conflict with a coworker and how it turned it (and they would only accept a SPECIFIC time)."
"If you could create a solution to increase adequate healthcare provided by the joint work of a physician and pharmacist, what would that solution be?"
"The program seemed to be doing a lot better than I expected. It's in a health center so it seems like it will get accreditation."
"Nice faculty/staff. Good facilities from what I was able to see..."
"The admissions staff, the facilities"
"Well-organized schedule, there was only a small group of other applicants there at the same time as I was"
"Everyone was extremely helpful and very friendly. Even though the school is still under construction, I was very impressed by all of the up-to-date facilities and state of the art technology in place."
"My professor interviewer seemed extremely uninterested."
"There were times during the process that felt a little unorganized. You are basically running all over the different buildings finding out where you're supposed to be. They gave us a map though, which was nice. There were times when I was just waiting alone in a room just waiting for the rest of the interviewers to be done."
"One of the interviews was oddly casual"
"One of the interviewers was a little too lax. She didn't ask me questions that pertained to getting to know me, so I left the interview completely unsure of what she would have to say about me at the committee review."
"Overall day was okay, but very disappointed that none of the students came and talked to us. We had a video tour, which makes it seem like they have something to hide."
"I had 2 separate interview times with 2 different faculty members. One of them talked more about pharmacy and its importance. The other one just got to know me as a person (my family, my education, etc.). They were really nice though and made me feel welcomed. The whole interview process was fairly well-structured and professional given that this is only their second time. This is the only school that I applied to that wasn't accredited and honestly the things they said kind of scared me. First of all, they are only in pre-candidate stage. Yes I know that's just part of the process of becoming accredited, but I kept thinking... what if it doesn't get accredited on time like UCSD (if at all). They also said they were still in the process of finding faculty. Again just another normal part of the process, but what if they didn't find enough? What if they don't have enough rotation sites, etc. But honestly, I am very paranoid and these things just set off my paranoia alarm. UNT COP is part of the UNTHSC which is very well respected all throughout Texas with years and years of experience in other health-related fields. This means they have the technology, the reputation, and probably the money to bring this program to full accreditation in no time. So unless you're a paranoid freak like me, everything seems like it's going to be fine."
"Enjoyable experience, nothing too stressful"
"Overall it was a good experience. Everyone on staff there was extremely helpful and friendly and I didn't feel like I was under immense pressure to impress."

"They need to learn how to properly reply to emails. I sent them a very well organized, formatted email and I got a very rude 1 line reply with no signature. Also, no more virtual tours please."
"No more virtual tours. I'm not sure every interview date got one, but mine did (weather was perfect for a tour)."
"Nothing, the admissions staff are wonderful!"
"None, they were all very friendly and extremely eager to help"
