NAVIGATING THE
APPLICATION
Once you enter the
application form, use the internal navigation
bars, hotlinks, and options in the Status menu at the right of the application screen.
Do not refresh pages or you will be logged out
of the application.
E-MAIL
At times PharmCAS will use a bulk e-mail process
to contact applicants. Some email providers use
filters to prevent users from receiving “spam”
(unsolicited, junk email). In some case, email
filters may interpret an email from PharmCAS or
a pharmacy school as “spam” and automatically
delete a message to you about the status of your
PharmCAS application. To avoid missing important
PharmCAS emails, turn the “spam” or
“junk” email filters off during the
application cycle. If your email provider does
not allow you to turn the filter off, you may
have access to a “junk mail file” that
archives all messages identified as sent to multiple
addresses. Periodically check your spam/junk email
file for PharmCAS or pharmacy school related messages.
If you do not currently have an email address
or are unable to turn off the spam/junk filters
described, please establish a new email account.
Below are a few free email services for you to
consider. (This is not a comprehensive list and
does not reflect an endorsement or guaranty of
reliable service).
