St John's Pharmacy application

Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>Right now, my main goal isn't any ivy schools or any national well known school, I'll be happy that i could get into St John's University in New York.</p>

<p>So, when i'm looking over the application for St John's, they mentioned something about a Pharm.D application that must also be filled out by the deadline. And i'm utterly confused, because i can't find anywhere else what this so called "application" is. So if anyone has already applied before, can they guide me through the entire application process to get into the pharm.D program for St John's? </p>

<p>Also, if i happen to get into the school itself, but not the program, can i still go into pre-pharmacy and later on major in pharmacy? Are there any notable differences? Can i even do that?
My overall average is 92 , so i guess that's a 3.68 GPA.
SAT grades : Math 800, Verbal 660, Writing 640
I've gotten a 5 on the AP bio exam.
I sad to say i've not participated in an intel/research, but i do have around 500 hours worth of community service plus one sport during the summer. What're the chances of me being able to get in? I've already compared with statistics, but i'd still like some personal opinions. </p>

<p>Thanks in advance.</p>

<p>St John considers SATs and GPA the most important factors in admission, with things like volunteer work and the essay on the next level of importance. </p>

<p>Your SAT scores, as you prob. know already, are considerably above their 75th percentile. GPA is prob. around their 70th percentile. Your SAT's will help you a lot there, esp. that 800 in math. </p>

<p>I think you'll get in due to your academics and community service, which is a trait St Johns values, just be sure to show some interest too since they take that into account. You might get some merit money too, considering your SAT score.</p>

<p>There is no special app for freshmen applying to the 0-6 pharmacy program - just meet the deadline (I think 12/1). They do have instructions and probably a special app for transfer to PharmD, so that may be what the reference is to. St John's does not usually take many, if any, transfers into the PharmD program so, if you're more committed to pharmacy than to the college, I'd say take another school's acceptance if St John's doesn't come through! Your gpa and SAT's do look within range for their program though, so don't stress about it.</p>
