Hello colleagues,
In this edition of The More You Know: WebAdMIT Edition, we are focusing on the Previous Attendance at a Health Profession Program question.
APPLICATION
Applicants will find the following question within the Other Information section of the Personal Information quadrant in the PharmCAS application:
INSTRUCTIONS TO APPLICANTS
Indicate whether you previously attended a health profession program anywhere in the world, regardless of completion. Pharmacy technician and pre-pharmacy programs do not qualify. If you select Yes, enter details about the program. Note: You are also required to send official transcripts and enter this health profession program in the Colleges Attended section.
WHAT SCHOOLS NEED TO KNOW
- Verification ensures that all applicant coursework was entered correctly and consistently. Verifiers can only see the Academic History quadrant of the application and verify the Colleges Attended section against the official transcripts submitted to PharmCAS.
- The Previous Attendance at a Health Profession Program question is within the Personal Information quadrant of the application, which is never seen by verifiers.
- Therefore, the onus is on the school to ensure an institution reported in the Previous Attendance at a Health Profession Program question was also reported by the applicant in the Colleges Attended section.
- Schools can find the Previous Attendance at a Health Profession Program tab within the Education panel in WebAdMIT.
WHAT TO DO IF A DISCREPANCY IS FOUND
If a school finds that an applicant answered yes to the Previous Attendance at a Health Profession Program question, but that institution is not listed under Colleges Attended, email our PharmCAS Manager, Nicole Iarossi, via niarossi@liaisonedu.com. Please include the applicant's name, PharmCAS ID, and a brief description of the missing information. Nicole will undeliver the application, so the applicant can add the missing information.
