  • Q: As a first-year Pharm.D. student, do you have any advice for students currently in the application cycle, Maris Copeland? A: “Be organized and set up deadlines of when you want things done. I waited until the last minute for organizing and that was very stressful. Stay on top of when you need to get your letter of recommendations in and always be gracious and send those individuals a note of appreciation after. Don’t be discouraged if you don’t have a lot of information on your resume, just try to put your best self forward, in other words, sell yourself! Make a great personal statement. Even though pharmacy schools look at grades a little bit, it’s the overall picture of who you are as a person that matters most in whether or not you get accepted.” .
