After You've Applied

So you've applied to transfer to USciences. What happens next?

  1. You may be asked to participate in an interview. Program interviews are required before acceptance into the professional phase of the doctor of pharmacy and doctor of physical therapy programs and are conducted by the PharmD or DPT admission committee by invitation only. Applicants pursuing other majors may be required to interview at the request of the department.
  2. Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis and decisions are typically made between December 15 and May 1.
  3. You will receive a decision letter via postal mail stating whether your application is accepted, denied, or wait-listed (see below for more information on wait-listing).
  4. If you are accepted, you will receive information on merit-based scholarships for which you may be eligible and a transfer credit evaluation with your acceptance letter.

Please note:

What happens if you're wait-listed?

  • Your letter will state the length of time the wait-list status is in effect.
  • If space becomes available, all wait-list status applications are reviewed as a group with the most qualified candidates being selected.
  • Wait list status does not guarantee an acceptance the following year should you choose to reactivate your application.
