2023-2024 (CURRENT) VOLUME TO DATE
Attached is the latest PharmCAS applicant volume report as of September 6 versus the same date last year. The total number of applicant accounts in the system increased by +3%, and the number of applicants with Submitted status increased by +11%. The total number of applications in the system increased by +2%, and submitted applications increased by +10%. The mean number of submitted applications per applicant changed from 2.51 in 2022 to 2.48 in 2023. Applicant data by state and primary college attended are also included. Eighty-seven percent (87%) of programs in the current cycle selected a deadline between March 2024 and June 2024, versus 85% of programs in the last cycle (as of September 2022). It is too early to know whether current trends will persist later in the cycle.
