Career Change Business (Finance) to Pharmacy?

We Answered:

I am not sure about needing a masters, but you will need quite a few pre-reqs in undergrad science for the PharmD program as well as the Pharm admit exam (PSAT). You would need to enroll in the pre-reqs & depending on where you are in science--that could take 2+ years as many of those have their own pre-reqs. Then the PSAT and then apply to pharmacy school.

University misled me twice... A little advise please?

We Answered:

It sounds like the typical shenanigans that universities the world over perpetrate. Suing is an unlikely recourse. A letter to whoever is Dean of Students and any other official at the school might be a good idea, and possibly a letter to the editor of a local paper describing your situation and the unfairness of how universities have a responsiblity to their students that they fail to live up to.

What are my Student Loan Options for Spring 2010 if I havent done a FAFSA?

We Answered:

You can still fill out the FAFSA for Spring of 2011, the federal deadline isn't until next June (2011). So you CAN fill out an application, but you MUST do it NOW.

As far as private loans, your chances of getting a private student loan with no credit and no co-signer is slim to none.

Your best option is to file for financial aid with the FAFSA NOW!!! =]

Student Finance Eligibility?

We Answered:

You are going to have to throw yourself at the mercy of your university. The statute quite clearly says that you cannot change from being an international to being a home fee payer in the middle of the degree course except under very limited conditions (get refugee status etc). Although you do not fall under one of these, I'm betting they have the discretion to apply these very limited conditions to you if you push them hard enough.

Then you can apply for a student loan. Good luck to you.
