Happy New Year to everyone! It’s that time of year where most of you are finalizing your applications and experiencing the thrill – or nerves – of pressing that “submit” button. Before you close your browser, it’s important to double-check that you have done all that you needed to by the application deadline. Here are a few important tips and reminders:

1. Remember that the application deadline is January 31st at 11:59pm PST.

2. Ensure that your application was submitted successfully and that your application fee was paid. Without a fee payment, your application is not complete.

3. Submit your official transcripts. Official transcripts are to be sent directly to the Undergraduate Admissions Office. The mailing address is as follows:

The University of British Columbia
Undergraduate Admissions
2016 – 1874 East Mall
Vancouver, BC, Canada V6T 1Z1

Important information about the online application, deadlines, how to submit transcripts, and much more can be found here: http://you.ubc.ca/admissions/how-to-apply/

4. Check your email inbox and junk mail folders. Information regarding your application will be communicated through email so it is important that you provide the correct email address and that you check your junk folders as well!

From February through March, we will be busy reviewing applications so your patience is appreciated during this time. We will be inviting selected applicants for interviews in early April. This year, the interviews will take place on April 30th and May 1st. Check our blog in the coming weeks for more information about the MMIs!

For those who are still contemplating Pharmacy as a career choice, or want to meet us in person before the application deadline, we will be hosting our last Information Evening on January 21, 2016 from 6-8 p.m. PST! This session will be streamed online as a live webcast for those who live outside of the Lower Mainland. Click here to RSVP.

Lastly, do not hesitate to call (604) 822-0344 or email undergrad.pharm@ubc.ca with your admissions questions. We wish you all the best with your application!
