<p>PharmDmom–my son was HS class of 2011, is PharmD class of 2017 so starting his 3rd year at Pitt, 1st year of Pharmacy school today. He had very similar stats, and received full tuition. With that being said, most of us agree that every year, that stats have to be higher for full tuition. I concur with AO that applying early is good and give them as much info as possible. Please feel free to private message my any time with questions as we’ve gone through the whole process of the first two years of Arts and Sciences and the application process for Pharmacy school. It’s all good and he’s very happy at Pitt. I would recommend setting up an appointment to meet with the School of Pharmacy rep just to sit down and talk with them. We did that after he was accepted but before he got the scholarship. It was a great experience and put my son at ease when decision time came. Here’s his stats for comparison:</p>
