How selection works

FDU reviews verified PharmCAS applications and selects qualified applicants for interview. Pre-pharmacy academic performance, the written application, references, and interview all inform the decision. official admissions information

Interview details

Confirmed

FDU confirms a required virtual Zoom interview. Invitations begin in early fall, interviews run from early October to mid-June, and the school says decisions are normally emailed within 14 days after interview. official admissions information

Not published

The school has not published the interview length, question types, number of interviewers, or scoring rubric for Fall 2027.

Who this program may suit

This programme may suit applicants who want a rolling process with a fully virtual interview and a published two-week post-interview decision target. This is an interpretation of the published programme structure, not an admission prediction. official admissions information

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.
