Important dates
The current PharmCAS directory lists June 1, 2027 as the final deadline for AUHS. The school's general dates page lists pharmacy intake availability by term but does not attach those rows to a cycle year, so the PharmCAS date is the controlling current-cycle reference here. current PharmCAS directory

Practice and next step
Record a first response to the linked fair-access scenario. Review whether you identified the competing needs, asked for missing information, applied a consistent principle, and communicated the decision with empathy. Choose one weakness, make one deliberate adjustment, then record a second response and compare it with the first. The linked CASPer Essentials path is optional structure practice; it is not presented as a school requirement.
