The interview will serve as an opportunity for you to demonstrate qualities that could not be fully assessed by your application alone. The interviewers wish to learn more about you and to determine your compatibility with our program.<\/p>\n<p>During the 25-30 minute interview your interviewers will ask a series of general\u00a0<strong>and<\/strong>\u00a0behavioral-based questions (which require you to draw from personal experience to formulate your answers).<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3>Identity Verification Policy<\/h3>\n<p>Proper identification of individuals allows WesternU to provide a safe and secure campus environment. In addition, the United States Federal Higher Education Opportunity Act (HEOA), Public Law 110-315, requires that University confirm that a person enrolling in the University is the person who is completing the enrollment form, and that the student taking an examination is the student who participates in, completes, and receives credit for the course.<\/p>\n<p>It is the policy of Western University of Health Sciences that applicants to the University are required to provide a government issued ID when checking in for an Admissions interview. Applicants who are unable to provide an acceptable form of identification may reschedule their interview if space is available. For more information on acceptable forms of identification, read the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernu.edu\/registrar\/policies\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">University\u2019s Identity Verification policy<\/a>.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3>Preparing For Your Interview Day<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Make sure your best business professional attire is ready to wear<\/li>\n<li>Review the <a href=\"\/media\/pharmacy\/pdfs\/programs\/pharmd\/pharmd_interview_day_guidebook.pdf\">Interview Day\u00a0Guidebook\u00a0<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Have a few questions ready for the interviewers in case they ask<\/li>\n<li>Print\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernu.edu\/campus\/campus-directions\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">directions\u00a0<\/a>and plan to arrive early<\/li>\n<li>Bring your laptop along with a pen and notepad in case you need to take notes<\/li>\n<li>Get a good nights\u2019 sleep so your body and mind are refreshed<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr \/>\n<h3>Parking<\/h3>\n<p>Free parking is available to visitors and guests.\u00a0 Parking lot 24 is the closest and most convenient, but lot 17 is also an option.\u00a0 Both lots can be found under the \u201cEmployee Parking\u201d section on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernu.edu\/campusmap\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">WesternU Campus Map<\/a>.<br \/>\nNo permit or passes required.<\/p>\n\n      <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n<div class=\"my-48 md:mt-96 md:mb-72\" vue-app>\n  <div class=\"container\">\n\n        <div class=\"flex flex-wrap md:justify-center md:items-center lg:px-112\">\n      <div class=\"w-full md:w-6\/12 pl-12 pr-20\">\n        <div class=\"rounded-5 md:rounded-8 bg-yellow\">\n          <div class=\"relative w-full h-256 sm:h-320 md:h-440 rounded-5 md:rounded-8 transform -translate-y-10 translate-x-8 md:-translate-y-18 md:translate-x-16 overflow-hidden\">\n\n                                      <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"adhere object-cover\" src=\"\/media\/pharmacy\/images\/022520-msps-huddle-campbell-02.jpg\" srcset=\"\" sizes=\"(min-width: 768px) 50vw, 100vw\" alt=\"College of Pharmacy Associate Professor of Pharmaceutical Science Arezoo Campbell, PhD, left, leads a hudlle in the pharmacy lab with MSPS student Jenny Tran, to her right, MSMS student DaVon Marshall, CPP chemistry student Abigail Trujillo and graduate volunteer Alex Kim.\">\n                                                    <app-modal-button modal-id=\"callout-video-left-1160341514\" class=\"adhere flex justify-center items-center group\" data-ga-category=\"video\" data-ga-label=\"embed\">\n                <span class=\"sr-only\">Open video modal<\/span>\n                <span class=\"block w-80 h-80 p-20 bg-red-light group-hover:bg-red text-white rounded-full transition-default\">\n                  <svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" aria-hidden=\"true\" preserveAspectRatio=\"xMidYMid meet\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\"><path d=\"M8 5v14l11-7z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg>\n                <\/span>\n              <\/app-modal-button>\n            \n          <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n      <\/div>\n      <div class=\"md:w-6\/12 mt-40 md:mt-0 px-12 md:pb-40 md:pl-40 xl:pl-80\">\n                  \t\t\t\t\n<div class=\"text-lockup text-lockup--default\">\n\t<h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"t-h2-serif  block text-red-light\">Financial Aid<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"t-h2-sans  block text-red\"> On-Demand Webinar<\/span>\n\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wysiwyg-content t-p2 mt-24 text-black\">The Office of Financial Aid has designed an online presentation specifically for WesternU interviewees.
