<p>I posted a similar question, but there's also more to it!</p>
<p>Right now, I am a 1st year in Montclair State University. I'm also in this 7 year joint pharmacy program with Rutgers, so I'll spend 3 years at MSU and 4 years at Rutgers. But the thing is, I'm kind of worried if I'll be able to get in the School of Pharmacy because 1) MSU doesn't really treat me as a pre-pharm student, 2) MSU doesn't really know much about what I have to do in the program, & 3) it seems like my spot isn't guaranteed, I have to go through an interview my 3rd year.</p>
<p>Would it be worth it if I still stay in the program? Or should I transfer to Rutgers in the Spring semester 2013 into SAS, take the pre pharm prerequisites for 2 years, then transfer to the School of Pharmacy?</p>
<p>Why don’t you try asking someone in the Rutgers Pharmacy school? Explain your problem: I am guessing that since they participate with MSU they should be able to give you some guidance. </p>
<p>Try to ask specific questions and if that person doesn’t know, ask to speak to someone else. Half the battle at Rutgers is getting your question to the right person/someone who cares. Keep trying!</p>
<p>ps I would try to stay in the program at MSU for 1 or 2 years and get those sciences/math out of the way. I am guessing they will be easier to take at MSU vs. Rutgers. Then you will have a better GPA when you are trying to transfer in via MSU vs Rutgers SAS. I went to Ocean County College my freshman year and transferred into Rutgers Pharmacy (many years ago).</p>
I just hope everything would go all right.</p>
