While on campus you will hear from students, faculty and administration about the curriculum, admissions process, as well as chat with students over lunch and take a tour of the campus.<\/p>\n<p>You can expect to be interviewed by faculty, administrators and\/or a student. 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<h4>Writing Sample<\/h4>\n<p>As part of the interview process, you will have 30 minutes to complete an essay on a general topic selected by the College of Pharmacy Admissions Committee.

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.
