    Hello colleagues,

    AACP and Liaison are pleased to share that organization-specific coupon codes are now available in PharmCAS! Coupon codes are application fee discounts that colleges and schools can use to incentivize applicants to apply. If your institution chooses to use this program, it can purchase coupon codes from Liaison and provide them to selected applicants.

    2020-2021 PharmCAS Coupon Code Policies

    • PharmCAS will offer coupon codes for a flat fee of $55 or $175.
    • All PharmCAS coupon codes will expire on the cycle close date (June 30, 2021).
    • NEW! As of September 1, 2020, coupon codes are now unique to each organization. However, any unused coupon codes purchased before September 1, 2020 will remain generic and cannot retroactively become organization-specific.


    A list of updated frequently asked questions (FAQ) is attached to help you learn more about this revised process. Please carefully review the FAQ before you purchase any coupon codes.

    Thanks,
    Katie

    Hello colleagues,

    As a follow up to the announcement that organization-specific coupon codes are now available in PharmCAS, we have added one new frequently asked question (FAQ) that we wanted to bring to your attention:

    With coupon codes available for $55 or $175, how can a school determine if an applicant has already applied to another PharmCAS institution to know which amount to offer them?
    Schools must communicate directly with applicants to determine the appropriate coupon code amount. Schools are advised not to give $175 coupons to applicants who have already submitted the application during the current cycle. If done, only $55 of the school's $175 coupon code will be applied to the applicant's account and used to cover the PharmCAS additional designation fee. The remaining value of the coupon ($120) will be relinquished by both the applicant and the school, as each code can only be used once.


    Should you have any additional questions that are not answered in the attached FAQ or other resources, please let us know.

    Thanks,
    Katie
