"My family is incredibly proud of me for going into pharmacy. My father is especially keen as he graduated from Western University of Health Sciences. My parents and older brother live in the area, so I will have a robust and encouraging support system should I be accepted into Western University of Health Sciences."

If you do not have the support of your family, do not say that you do. The interviewers will not reject you as a candidate if you do not have your family's support. However, they would like to see that you have someone who supports your goals. Describe who supports you in your life.
