Who should attend Preview Day?
Anyone who would like to know more about the PharmD program at UW-Madison!
High school students, parents, undergraduates, advisors, and teachers are all encouraged to attend.
During part of the event, attendees will be split into two "tracks" depending on their stage in the PharmD admissions process. High school students and family members will receive information that will be helpful for the early stages of their pharmacy journey, while college students and others ready to apply to a PharmD program will receive more specific admissions information.

I attended your Open House event last spring. Should I still go to Preview Day?
Preview Day provides unique information about admissions, financial aid, and pharmacy careers. These topics are not covered at our spring Open House. The events are planned so that you can attend both and gain new insights each time.
If you have further questions, please reach out to PharmD@pharmacy.wisc.edu.
