What should I do if I haven't heard back from a pharmacy school that I applied to?

Question: 
What does it mean when you don't hear from schools for a long time (without an interview invite)? Is it a rejection or am waitlisted?

Thank you


Answer:
Upon submitting the necessary paperwork or PharmCas application, were you notified that the school had received everything they needed?  If so, good.  If not, there certainly could have been an issue in transmission which you would need to call and speak with someone directly as soon as possible. If you were informed that they had received your application and supplemental (if necessary), I think it would be acceptable to send them an email or make a phone call to the Admissions Office to check the status of the application. Some schools that do not have rolling admissions will wait until late in the process and have a single interview day, so it's not impossible that they are still reviewing applications.

I hope that helps. Good luck and please keep us informed.
