After the interview
How we decide on offers of admission
After the interview, we determine each applicants Admission Score.
The Admission score is calculated as follows:
The Academic Score represents 65% of the Admission Score
The Interview Score represents 35% of the Admission Score
The Admission Score of each interviewed applicant are calculated based on the above formula and then students are ranked from highest to lowest.
The top 40 are offered a seat in the program with a minimum of 75% of the seats going to applicants that are residents from the province of Newfoundland and Labrador.
Usually, offers of admission are made in mid to late June.
Below is a chart to help guide you after you have been either offered or not offered admission.
| OFFERED ADMISSION |
NOT OFFERED ADMISSION |
- Applicants have 14 days from the date of the letter of offer to either accept or decline our offer of admission. If no acknowledgment is received by that time, the offer of admission will be withdrawn.
- Your offer of admission, will also include an acceptance form, which must be signed and returned with a cheque or money order payable to the MUN School of Pharmacy for $100. We also accept Visa or Mastercard. This fee is non-refundable but will be credited towards tuition fees.
- After we receive your acceptance, you will be sent a "Welcome Package" which included registration information and a copy of the timetabl, orientation information, etc.
- Approximately ten (10) students are placed on the wait list -- five for the Newfoundland and Labrador pool and five for the out of province pool. If you are on a waitlist, you will be informed of this status by late June.
- If someone declines their offer of admission, the next person on the wait list is contacted.
- Generally, the whole admission process is completed by mid-August. Once all the available seats are filled, all who remain on the waitlist are notified and encouraged to try again.

- If you are interested in re-applying, it is recommended that you take courses that meet the requirements of not only a pharmacy degree, but another degree as well so all your eggs are not in one basket.
- However, if you're a MUN student thinking of changing your degree program or are unsure of what to do next, below are two contacts you should use to help develop a plan:
- The Academic Advising Centre can help you discover all of your educational options at Memorial.
