I'm usually a cheapskate when it comes to non-essential food items, so that was a pleasant binge." More from this Member | Report Response

"They had a 3rd year student who ate lunch with us and was very friendly. He answered questions truthfully (no bs) and was a fantastic resource.

"Everyone was very friendly and warm. They provided breakfast and lunch. They really emphasize an "open-door" policy which is where you can visit a professor and ask them questions at anytime. This is possible because the school is teaching based and not researched based so the professors priority is the students. " More from this Member | Report Response

"The relationship between faculty and the students. It had a definite community feel to it. " More from this Member | Report Response

"none" More from this Member | Report Response

"The gym. Small weight room and very little selection of weightlifting machines." More from this Member | Report Response

"Lots of downtime!!! However I was in first interview group so I got it over with, and it lessened my stress level. FA presentation was us watching a video that they handed out." More from this Member | Report Response

"Nothing, other than it's located in the desert so it can get really hot! But you'll be inside buildings most of the time anyway!" More from this Member | Report Response

"The down time.. I wish i had known that there would be so much down time.. My interview was the last one since i was in group 4 and it was horrible because i had to wait almost 4 hours just for the interview. it could have been more organized " More from this Member | Report Response

"As others have said, there is some waiting around, but you're in a pretty comfortable lounge area and there are interesting people to talk to. Some people sat by themselves the entire time--prepare to be really bored if this is your approach." More from this Member | Report Response

"I was under the impression that we would be mingling pretty much all day with current students, but that was not the case. I spent from 8 to 2 mingling among other candidates with a 45 min - 3 on 3 - group interview at around 10am." More from this Member | Report Response

"The limited amount of student housing." More from this Member | Report Response

"Location and weather. In the middle of bland suburbia and endless strip malls, and weather is only good during the winter." More from this Member | Report Response

"There was way too much downtime. I was in the last group and waited 2 hours to interview. I was mostly just waiting around which made me more nervous." More from this Member | Report Response

"the tour was long, very thorough. I liked the effort on the behalf of the staff, but it was warm and we were walking in our heels...enough said" More from this Member | Report Response

"the group interview was odd. I was with two other interviewees that sounded very rehearsed! " More from this Member | Report Response

"The hot weather and how everything was barren. I know Arizona gets hot but it was end of March and already 86 degrees out. The school is still developing but so far all you see is dry land, some buildings, and more dry land. Also, the fitness center is a room that can hold about 4 people max." More from this Member | Report Response

"lots of downtime between activities (I took a book to read)" More from this Member | Report Response

"The lack of cordial staff. Other than the student tour guide and other students we met during lunch, no one else seems the care that we existed." More from this Member | Report Response

"The whole day was way too long and pointless. There was a lot of down time. The entire day could have been condensed into just 3 hours. Instead, we got there at 7:45am and didn't start doing anything until 8:30am. The interview lasted 1 hour. We waited for the other group to do their interview for 1 hour (down time). Then, we went to hear financial aid info and campus tour (information that is irrelevant unless you're actually accepted). My friend was in a different group of interview. She got interviewers who were really mean and anal. They never smiled. When it was time to ask questions, they were still mean and rude. However, my interviewers were very nice. Therefore, I can't say the same thing for my own experience, but I was surprised at how mean they were to my friend and her entire group." More from this Member | Report Response

"nothing really" More from this Member | Report Response

"How much FREE TIME we had, they made what could have been two hours an all day thing. Wasn't too thrilled with the interview set up though, only about 10-12 minutes of face time per person in mine :(" More from this Member | Report Response

"Somewhat disorganized presentations, WAY TOO MUCH FREE TIME (we had two hours for lunch), the student who came and talked to us/answered questions really didn't seem like she wanted to be there." More from this Member | Report Response

"The $750 deposit if accepted. I don't mean to get ahead of myself or anything... but still, that's a lot of bank. Plus I couldn't really think of many other things that impressed me negatively... I'm sure people usually say weather, but I was raised there so I'm kinda used tot he heat." More from this Member | Report Response

"There was quite a bit of time where we just ended up sitting around. The other applicants were really friendly and fun to talk to, but just as I had read in other posts it seemed like there was a ridiculous amount of down time for having only 7 applicants at the interview day. If you don't value my time as a potential student what does that tell you about how it will be once I am a student there? Maybe that's a little harsh, but I wasn't terribly impressed with the day's set-up." More from this Member | Report Response

"The school didn't negatively impress me.. The fact that it was still hot outside at 11 pm did somewhat. o__0" More from this Member | Report Response

"School is great, but its pretty expensive..." More from this Member | Report Response

"Glendale is suburbia, not much out there except for strip malls and miles of stucco houses that all look the same. We didn't get to speak to any current pharmacy students or look at pharmacy classrooms." More from this Member | Report Response

"Campus was TINY. MINISCULE. DIMUNITIVE. MICROSCOPIC. LITTLE, even. More irritating was the downtime. Had I known in advance, I would not have shown up until 1/2 hour before the actual interviews. I'm not exaggerating, you have at least a couple of hours to sit on your thumbs. " More from this Member | Report Response

"90 degrees by 10:30 AM, price of tuition and living, I would have liked to talk to some current pharmacy students and see mabey a class in session through a window or something" More from this Member | Report Response

"The interviewers seemed...not warm at all, like they had no personality." More from this Member | Report Response

"The tour did not include a visit to any of the pharmacy rooms, too much down time during the interview." More from this Member | Report Response

"I expected the campus to be larger." More from this Member | Report Response

"the interview process was too long! " More from this Member | Report Response

"The campus had grass. Grass does not grow in a desert and it looked tacky. I would have been more impressed with the campus if it had more natural desert landscaping. The facilities were not as nice as I was expecting. Campus felt very isolated and removed from the outside world. It is in the suburbs, which some people might like, but with little in the way of public transportation, driving is a necessity." More from this Member | Report Response

"the people here were too conservative." More from this Member | Report Response

"After lunch, I felt a little burnt out and ready to go. The excitement of the interview was over, but we still had the Dean's welcome and a financial aid presentation. Although both of these were necessary and very informative, it would have been nice to have the presentations earlier in the day. " More from this Member | Report Response

"the food in the cafeteria and the tuition fee." More from this Member | Report Response

"The interview process is long and the school is extremely expensive." More from this Member | Report Response

"Nothing except the amount you would need each year from loans to go there. WOWZA! But I guess it's okay since you start making $90,000 after you graduate. :-)" More from this Member | Report Response

"It is in the desert, so there is very little greenery and the campus is a bit small. Also the cost of tuition 50k is not little sum" More from this Member | Report Response

"The COST (cost of attendance 50 grand/year), not sure if I'm a big fan of the curriculum." More from this Member | Report Response

"Students were inaccessible because they were taking exams. There is too much waiting around in the admissions office. Bring a book to read." More from this Member | Report Response

"after all, the school is sort of in the middle of nowhere, actually in the middle of a desert! and like said be4, not that high-tech compared to schools in the midwest or northeast" More from this Member | Report Response

"We had to sit around and wait for almost 3 hours. THere is a lot of down time- bring something to read! Also, MWU is a very small campus, and there are only two lecture halls where you have all of your classes." More from this Member | Report Response

"Interview style changed to 1:3" More from this Member | Report Response

"That we had all day to complete our writing exercise" More from this Member | Report Response

"we got out around noon, not 2:30 like we had been quoted" More from this Member | Report Response

"Interview ends earlier than the schedule. They provide mini-breakfast (yogurt, OJ, water, snacks..) so if you're the kind of person who absolutely needs breakfast, eat something ahead. I was too nervous so I only ate yogurt anyway." More from this Member | Report Response

"There isn't really any real breakfast (like other people on SDN pointed out) and you do not need to stay for lunch because the financial aid presentation is just e-mailed to you" More from this Member | Report Response

"The resume that you attach to your application is given to the interviewers. If I had know this I would have a sent a concise, 1-page resume. Also, I would not have spent as much time reiterating what they already knew. Be aware that there is an extemporaneous essay component. Bring a pencil and eraser, because only pens and golf pencils are offered. I would have been able to better answer the essay if I brought a pencil." More from this Member | Report Response

"Nothing, I was prepared, except that I am from Chicago and the heat was a little bothersome as we toured the campus. Other than that it was great." More from this Member | Report Response

"I wished that I would have sat in the middle between the two students. Instead, I sat at one end and ended up answering about half the questions first. If I sat in the middle, I would have had time to think about the question. " More from this Member | Report Response

"Was pretty well prepared. Glad that the questions were asked to each person so we weren't fighting to answer first. Group interview not nearly as bad as i thought it was going to be." More from this Member | Report Response

"I thought a group interview of 3 interviewers (2 faculty, 1 student) on 3 interviewees would make it difficult but it was actually nicer that way. Gives you time to think in between as it's not a situation where you need to compete or interrupt others to get a word in. Instead, they will ask a question, and go around until everyone has had a chance to answer it, then start over with a new question. You're not rushed, and you get to hear how others answered and time to relax and think. " More from this Member | Report Response

"How long it took for me to drive to the airport. had to wait like 4 hours at the airport cause i scheduled my flight so late. thought i would end at 2:30 but we ended at 1:30 and got to the airport at 2:15. My flight was at 6:15 :-(" More from this Member | Report Response

"Group interviews aren't really all that bad." More from this Member | Report Response

"I was thinking the cost was somewhere around $34,000 per year for three years, but it's more like $50,000 a year for 3 years...yes, there's the opportunity cost of getting a job a year later if you go to a traditional 4-year program, but this school is not cheap." More from this Member | Report Response

"They do not have any rotation sites set up in my state at the moment. However, I was told that I would be able to set it up on my own by contacting local hospitals in my home state so that I would be able to come home and do my rotations during the 3rd year. It's not a big deal and I don't mind forwarding information/speaking to local pharmacy directors but I didn't realize that this could be a possible limitation." More from this Member | Report Response

"The school is very nice, the neighborhood is beautiful, and student affairs is really working to create a better campus environment for its non-commuter students. This school is a WICHE PSEP participating school. From what I could tell the interview questions give completely vary from group to group. Some groups got situational questions like "if X happened what would you do?" while others got the types that are reflected on this forum. Set up= 2 faculty, 1 PS3 student 45 min interview, 10 min for questions at the end 100 word extemporaneous essay involved (bring a pencil and eraser!)" More from this Member | Report Response

"Wonderful school, amazing and beautiful campus, and caring faculty. They get over 2000 applicants every year and interview about 400 for a class of 130. They start in early June and go year-round, graduating in 3 years! 10 week quarters, 18 units/qtr, and about 2 exams every week and ending with a finals week. The instructors seem to really care that you do well and it shows in their high NAPLEX scores and low attrition rate of 1%. They want everyone to do well. It seems like a great school to prepare you for pharmacy. Good luck!" More from this Member | Report Response

"I do not know how all the interviews are but since our interview was the week right before the adcom meets the turn back time was extremely quick.

"Very nice people at midwestern and very nice campus" More from this Member | Report Response

"Everyone's comments have been right on the dot. We are supposed to be there by 7:45am but things do not start until 8:30. Luckily, my group was the first to interview, while other groups either went on a tour or waited around for an hour. Whichever group you were in, it was guaranteed you had at least one whole hour to sit and chit chat or wait anxiously. The tour was nice, we even got to see the clinic on the other side of the street. The pharmacy department in that clinic, however, seemed quite small. The cafeteria is only open for lunch. So those who live on campus would still have to take care of breakfast and dinner. That would be a troublesome burden for someone like me who does not cook. Though there were some gaps in between, they wrapped things up early and we were done by 2pm instead of 2:30. I interviewed on Friday and by Wednesday of the following week found out I was accepted. I guess it is because mine was the last interview date." More from this Member | Report Response

"The interviewers were down right hostile. This is my third interview and I walked out of there feeling angry and frustrated. I can handle stoic faces but I can't handle it when they were giving dirty looks like that. You'd think that I just killed their beloved dog or something. My two interviewers were part of the faculty and if this is the way that they treat potential students, then I don't want to even know what it'll be like to ask them for help for one of their classes. Other than that, be prepared to be ignored. They separated everyone into 4 groups: 3 panels. Groups 1 and 2 interview first and groups 3 and 4 goes on a tour and financial aid discussion. This would have been great if groups 1 and 2 could go at the same time but we didn't. Group 1 goes first (8:30am) and group 2 goes at (9:30am). So whoever was in that group arrived there at 7:45 am and sat in the waiting room for 2 hours until they did anything. This experience was so disappointing, it completely turned me off about the school. They need to take notes from their Chicago school." More from this Member | Report Response

"The day was way too long. Everything was disorganized. I interviewed at their sister university (MWU-CCP) in Chicago and had a better experience because their agenda for the day was much more organized." More from this Member | Report Response

"It was a pleasant interview. However, I have to say.. it was a little, too long." More from this Member | Report Response

"Overall it was good, I think the interview are better as a three on one style interview simply because it is hard to completly showcase yourself in the limited time given. They could quite easily shorten the day or add another lecture or two to the agenda so you aren't sitting around as much." More from this Member | Report Response

"MWU basically gets out-competed by the University of Arizona, Tucson for rotation sites... (Their assistant-dean told us that they routinely send students to nevada/utah, and that in some instances there was no pharmacist-preceptor at that site! Scary!!)" More from this Member | Report Response

"The 3 on 3 interview style wasn't as bad as I feared. It was actually nice to not have the pressure on me the whole time. Although the dynamic is kind of different, we had to respond to other's answers and we didn't all get the same questions. The interview day was incredibly long, literally hours of empty time." More from this Member | Report Response

"Overall the interviewers were courteous, as was my co-interviewee. We had sufficient time to answer questions, and it had a conversational tone to everything, minus the fact that pretty much all their questions were scripted..." More from this Member | Report Response

"I thought the interview experience was terrible. Very impersonal. When you are with three other candidates for a ~40 minute interview you really don't have that much time to let the interviewers know who you are. I would much prefer a one-on-one set up or even have three interviewers asking me questions by myself rather than have 3 applicants interview at once, but that's just me. It really changes the feel of the interview having other applicants in there with you." More from this Member | Report Response

"The interview day ran from 7:45 am until 2:30 pm, so be prepared for a pretty long day. In the morning while we waited to find out our schedules for the day (they split us into 4 groups), we had a chance to speak with 3 current pharmacy students. My group had the tour first, the group interview, and then the financial presentation. Lunch was around noon and the twelve of us ate lunch with the same 3 pharmacy students we had a chance to speak to earlier. It was great hearing first-hand from the students themselves. Ask lots of questions-- this is your time to find out what you want to know!" More from this Member | Report Response

"Overall, the anxiety level dies down as the day progresses. The staff/ personnel were very nice and friendly. The interview itself was a group format: 3 applicants and 3 professors. " More from this Member | Report Response

"Great school but not sure if the 3 year program is for me. Nice to see the school though." More from this Member | Report Response

"Went very well, nice campus, " More from this Member | Report Response

"very laid back, more of a conversation than an interrogation" More from this Member | Report Response

"They provide a continental breakfast, and $8 (more than enough!) for lunch, so you won't go hungry. The interview itself was a little stressful because it was 3 on 1 (two professors and a student). And they write, so it kind of makes you wonder what it is they want to remember. There was a very long awkward silence after I finished answering every question, and I thought it might just kill me... But I got in, so I guess it went well. Also, I felt that one of my interviewers REALLY didn't like me because he sat there with his arms folded the whole time, but one of the students told me later that he's actually really funny. So I guess I would say, don't judge a book by its cover. They give you a list of all of the interviewers and a mini-biography to read, so I would look that over and ask them questions about what they do at the end of the interview."

"I like the fact that Midwestern focuses exclusively on educating health care professionals (pharmacy, OT, PT, Nurse Anestatist, etc.) The program is very well organized. I am very impressed." More from this Member | Report Response

"Like all other postings, there is a lot of down time. Fortunately our group was sociable and the time went quicker than I imagined. Interview went well...remember to smile and breathe. You are interviewing the faculty just as much as they are interviewing them, make sure you get your questions answered and have fun! (Looks like I will be attending in the fall :) )" More from this Member | Report Response

"The interview itself was only 30 mins but we had to wait around forever. There was also a tour scheduled during the wait time. They provided lunch after the interviews and then there was a message from the dean as well as a financial aid talk. " More from this Member | Report Response

"there were 17 of us. we met in the office of admissions. we got a folder with our schedule for the day and background information on our interviewers. then they broke us up into 2 groups. my group toured the school first. our tour guide was a second year student who was really nice and enthusiastic. then we met back at the office and i was called for my interview. 3 professors interviewed me. they said it wasn't an interrogation, but merely a conversation to get to know me. i still felt like i was being interrogated though. when that was over i breathed a sigh of relief and worked on a survey they gave me to fill out. then we had lunch. then we met with the assistant dean and she spoke to us about the school. that was followed by a meeting about financial aid. then we turned in our surveys back at the office and the day was done!" More from this Member | Report Response

"the morning was normal.. they split you up into 2 groups.. the lunch was good as they gave you a generous voucher. the apartments were interesting.. the on campus apts were very dorm looking whereas the off campus ones were really nice. the people were nice and freindly and the weather was pretty hot but i like that sort of thing. you are in the middle of no where, but hey tht should give u reason to study. " More from this Member | Report Response

"I like the location of Midwestern; I like that it is small and TEACHING focused (although, research is fun too). Everyone was laid back and friendly. I played ping-pong in the cafeteria during lunch. So overall, it was a great day :)" More from this Member | Report Response

"we were separated in 2 groups. As one group was interviewed, the other went for a campus tour. Breakfast was provided ( which was really good), and so was lunch, but I wasn't fond of the food in the cafeteria. After lunch, a financial aid presentation was given and although I was bored in the beginning, I was awakened by shock when I looked at the figure in the tuition fee. So was everyone else in the room. =) Anyway, it was a great experience and I am definitely going there in 2007. " More from this Member | Report Response

"Interviewees are broken up into two groups. One group tours the campus while the other is interviewed. Then the groups switch. After all of the interviews are complete, the entire group is given a cafeteria allowance for lunch. After lunch, the Associate Dean gives a presentation outlining the mission of Midwestern CPG. Then there is a 45 minute financial aid presentation. Lastly, you fill out the exit survey. Be prepared for a 7.5 hour day." More from this Member | Report Response

"Very stressful" More from this Member | Report Response

"It was very relaxed. The interviewers put me at ease and I felt like I was having a conversation rather than a Q&A drill session. " More from this Member | Report Response

"the interviewing student was so pretending and he was acting as if he were was the decision maker ....and he was about to tell me that he was born to be a pharmacist...." More from this Member | Report Response

"I arrived at the interivew at 8:00 am and I felt like I was late because everyone was there. We split into 2 groups and one group went to a school tour and another group started the interviews. The student was very helpful and gave us lots of hints about the interviewers and the questions to expect. Expect to have a lot of down time. After the tour, which only lasted 20 minutes, you have about 1-1&1/2 hour to wait either for the interview or for other people to interview. During that time you have to fill out a exit survey, which also serves as your writing sample. There are 3 groups of interviewers and each person gets 30 minutes, no more no less. After the interviews ended at 12 or so, the school hosted lunch followed by intro from the associate dean and a financial aid session. The day ended at 2:15 or so. It was realtively low stress, although I stress easy. Don't be afraid to stand out, they are looking for that. I would advise against wearing a black suit because some faculty said are we at a funeral? By the way, I was accepted and am going there in the fall of 2006." More from this Member | Report Response

"I got there at about 7:45 and almost everyone was already there. They had a continental breakfast set up. Half of us went on a tour while the other half started their interviews, then we switched. Expect to sit around for 1 1/2-2 hours waiting for your interview. We were fed lunch, then the associate dean and financial aid gave presentations. We were done at about 2:15. The "writing sample" was actually an exit survey that we completed while we were sitting around." More from this Member | Report Response

"My day began at 8, ended at 2:30. there were only 10 students in my group that day. The admission staffs said that since people don't want to come in for interview right after holidays, that's why there were only 10 of us..Usually, there will be 20-25/group. We started of with interview. There were 2 panel and 3 interviewers in each panel. After interview, everyone went for campus visit, then luch and the Dean came and welcome us. My day was ended with financial aide. The interviewers I had, they were very nice, made me feel comfortable!!" More from this Member | Report Response

"The day began at 8 am, and each candidate was given a folder with information about faculty members, agenda, and information about Phoenix. Interviews were scheduled throughout the day from 8:30 to 11:30. There were three panels, and each panel consisted of a wide spectrum of professionals. One panel consisted of two faculty members and a preceptor. Another consisted of three professors. The final consisted of one professor, one preceptor, and a pharmacy student. From the information I gathered, the interviewing style varied significantly from panel to panel. One panel concentrated on questions found on this website. Another asked experiential questions like "tell me about a time" type questions. Some had difficult interviews and others had a wonderful experience. It really depends on who interviews you. A lot of people seemed nervous the entire time, and some just did not know what to expect. There was a lot of uncertainty in how people stood after the interview. After the interview we were treated to lunch by the university. Then the Dean gave a presentation on the school. The day ended with financial aid presentation. Expect to get out by 2:30. Expect to find out in 4 weeks." More from this Member | Report Response

"All in all, it was a good experience.. And guys, whatever you say, never say you want to do RETAIL !!! My friend told me abt this before my interview and it soo true.. RETAIL is a taboo word; if u say retail, then they will think u are just in it for the money and that you dont care abt anything else.. And also, make sure ask them at least 2 good questions at the end... either abt their program or abt the school... make sure its good.. dont ask them stupid stuff like how much the tuition is how the weather is like !!! u are supposed to kno all that by this point.. Good luckkkkkkk" More from this Member | Report Response

"During the interview, I did not feel like the interviewers were very welcoming. They came off as harsh and not all that easy to get along with. The one cool thing about MWU is that it is a 3 year program." More from this Member | Report Response

"i was nervous beforehand because i didn't know what to expect, but the interviewers really made me feel at ease. " More from this Member | Report Response

"Overall, besides the pre-reqs possibly not fulfilling the requirements, the interview was a great experience. The faculty were very friendly and non-hostile during the interview. It seemed more like a conversation with some of your parent's friends rather than people that are pretty much deciding the future of your career in pharmacy." More from this Member | Report Response

"Great experience, if accepted it will definitely be hard to say no." More from this Member | Report Response

"The whole day was very easy going. They work hard to make you feel at ease. " More from this Member | Report Response

"We were offered breakfast in the morning. After breakfast, we watched a presentation dealing with tuition and financial aid. Interviews followed and we had two professors that teaches in the pharmacy program as the interviewers. They took the first 20 minutes to ask questions to get to know you better and observe your interacting skills and the last 10 minutes for you to ask them any questions you have. Lunch was served after everybody finished their interviews. All in all, I had a great experience here. I expected the interview to be a lot worse than it ended up being, but this really helped me because I came very prepared. " More from this Member | Report Response

"The school seems like its purpose is to help you succeed. Everybody learns your name and creates an extended family atmosphere." More from this Member | Report Response

"I arrived at 8AM. There were 16 interviewees that day, including myself. We were given name tags and a folder including an interview agenda, faculty profiles, sample student schedules, and a list of things to do in Phoenix. We socialized as we ate a continental breakfast. I had a blueberry muffin and applejuice. The group was split into morning and afternoon interviews. While one group was interviewing, the other was taking a tour of the campus. The actual interview was 30 min, with a panel of two professors and a student. Be sure to look at everyone when you answer questions. After the last interview, we all ate lunch together, then the Dean asked us if we had any more questions. We were told what the next step would be and when to expect letters. We were dismissed at 1:15 PM. Whatever you do, don't wear black! The admissions counselor made a comment like "To those of you wearing black, I'm sorry, this is not your funeral. This is a happy day." " More from this Member | Report Response
