What kind of research did you conduct that led you to apply to our university of pharmacy?

Your admissions interviewers want to know why you are choosing them over another university with a similar program. Explain the considerations you took before sending your application to MCPHS University.

Avoid saying anything that suggests you were playing the numbers game and blindly sending out applications everywhere, hoping one would stick. The best approach is to examine their branding and the aspects of the school that they take pride in.

For example, here are some marks of pride they state on their website, "Ready to shape your future? There's no better place to start. MCPHS is a private, not-for-profit, healthcare-focused university with a full spectrum of healthcare programs. As a teaching institution, we are passionate about our students, and they are equally passionate about advancing into careers in a vital industry. While it's nearly impossible to put a price on building your life around your passion, we think you'll find that MCPHS is a remarkable, all-around value for what you get in return. #1 University in the U.S. for Earning Power The Wall Street Journal/Times Higher Education College Rankings for 2018 puts MCPHS graduates on top.
