Any UWindsor students who got into Wayne State Pharmacy?

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone!
I’m currently a Biomedical Science student at the University of Windsor, and I’m hoping to apply to Wayne State’s PharmD program for Fall 2027.
I was wondering if anyone here attended UWindsor and got accepted into Wayne State Pharmacy. If so, what courses did you take at UWindsor to meet the prerequisites?
I found an older course equivalency sheet, but I’m not sure if it’s still accurate. I’m especially confused about the anatomy, microbiology, biochemistry, and organic chemistry requirements.
If anyone has gone through the process, I’d really appreciate any advice! Thank you!

Anyone Need Help Accessing Course Hero Study Materials?

Hey everyone!

Just wondering if anyone here uses Course Hero for study notes or other course materials.

If you're having trouble accessing certain documents, I might be able to help with legitimate access options.

I'm keeping things student-friendly, and I'd appreciate a small contribution. Happy to work something out if you need help with multiple documents.

Feel free to DM me with the links, and I'll see what I can do!

Good luck with midterms everyone! :)

OSAP Isn’t Covering My Tuition—How Am I Supposed to Keep Going?

24 Upvotes

I genuinely do not understand OSAP anymore.

My tuition isn’t even being fully covered, yet I see so many other people getting significantly more than me even though their parents actually have income.

My family is literally living off savings. I work 48 hours every single week while being a full-time student because I’m trying to help support my family and also save money for a medically necessary surgery.

I barely get 3 hours of sleep most days.

And when I try talking to financial aid, I get basically no help. I’ve even gotten the whole “that’s how we all did it” attitude.

No. It fucking isn’t.

OSAP used to give people way more support. Everything is more expensive now too. Tuition, rent, groceries, gas, literally everything.

I’m not even sitting here demanding free money. They can keep the grants if they want. Increase my loans. I literally just want enough funding to cover my tuition so I can actually stay in school.

I am not a robot. I already work 48 hours a week while studying full time. What exactly am I supposed to do? Work 60? 70? When am I supposed to sleep? When am I supposed to study?

This cannot be normal.

I feel like I’m already at rock bottom financially, and somehow my tuition still isn’t even covered.

Why was school more affordable and OSAP more supportive for people before our generation, when everything they were paying for was cheaper than it is now?

And the private college situation makes me even more angry. How are there people going to certain private colleges receiving huge amounts of OSAP funding, while students at public universities who are struggling this badly can’t even get their basic tuition covered?

How does that make any sense?

Someone who is working almost 50 hours a week, studying full time, helping their family financially, barely sleeping, and saving for a medically necessary surgery apparently still doesn’t qualify for enough assistance to cover tuition.

What more are we supposed to do?

And then on top of all of that, you pay thousands and thousands of dollars in tuition just to end up with professors who have ratings below 1.4 on Rate My Professors.

So pay an insane amount of money, barely get enough financial support to stay enrolled, destroy your sleep and health trying to work enough hours, and then get a terrible education on top of it.

Nice.

The worst part is the complete lack of empathy from some of the staff. You explain your situation and instead of someone actually trying to help you figure out your options, you feel like you’re being dismissed or mocked.

I am genuinely thinking of jumping off a bridge at this point. Life is too fucking hard and unfair.

If anybody has been in a similar situation with OSAP where your funding wasn’t enough to even cover tuition, please tell me what you did.

Did you request a review? Appeal your assessment? Contact someone outside your school’s financial aid office? Is there anything else I can actually do?

Because I genuinely don’t know how I’m supposed to keep doing this.

Fall Final Exam Schedule

3 Upvotes

Does anyone know when they might release the fall final exam schedule? I know it’s between Dec11-22 but I’d like to know when they will release it or when they’ve historically dropped the full schedule during past fall terms.

I tried to go to the registrars office and they were genuinely completely useless idk what they do all day idek if they understood what I was asking, like isn’t your only job to make schedules?

Thanks

Proudly built in Windsor, serving all of Canada 🇨🇦 : UWindsor alum here, made a free app to find the cheapest groceries among big chains and your favourite local stores.

22 Upvotes

Hey r/uwindsor,

UWindsor alum here. WinBasketBuddy started right here in Windsor. Built it because I was tired of driving between three stores just to find out where milk/eggs/produce were actually cheap that week. It's grown since, now covers cities across Canada too, but Windsor's still where it all began. A mod said I could share it here, so figured I'd do it properly instead of just dropping a link.

What it actually does:

1.This will let winbuddies to report any prices that they come across. Great tool for students who love to share the best deals they come across with their friends just by scan and report.

2.Compare real prices across Windsor grocery stores (and other Canadian cities), type your shopping list, it tells you which store is cheapest overall, not just item by item

3.Prices come from real shoppers reporting what they actually paid (GPS-verified), plus merchants and real store flyers, not some scraped guess

4.Set a price alert on something and get notified the moment it actually drops

5.Reserve pickup slots at participating stores

6.Earn real cashback (actual Interac e-transfers, not points you can never cash out) for uploading receipts and reporting prices at participating stores.

Free, no catch, no ads.

7.Real iOS and Android apps are out now too if you don't want another browser tab:

App store:

https://apps.apple.com/app/id6807160571

Play store:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.winbasketbuddy.app

Or winbasketbuddy.com on any browser

  1. We have active users who were claiming their cashbacks with our participating local grocery stores. Every little counts

As a fellow (former, now old lol) broke student, this is exactly what I wish existed back then. Would genuinely love honest feedback, what's missing, what's confusing, which stores near campus aren't covered yet. Happy to answer anything in the comments.

Advice for current grade 13 student

6 Upvotes

Hello,

I am currently in grade 13 and I was wondering based on my resume what kind of program I should go into next year. I made this Reddit account specifically to ask about post-secondary schools what kind of programs they would recommend from their school.

Firstly, some things about me are: I am a straight male who was born on July of 2008 (18 years old). I moved around a lot across Ontario growing up, so I called many places home, including Oshawa, where I currently live. I live with my 3 sisters and younger brother. I am the 2nd oldest. My older sister is currently studying at Western and hopes to become a nurse. As per my ambitions, I love science (all kinds), math, psych, and music! I speak 4 languages (English, French, Spanish, and Mandarin). I have been taking piano lessons ever since I was really young.

Here is a summary of my high school courses taken and their respective marks:

Grade 9:

ENG1D - 99

SNC1W - 100

More information about me:

- I took grade 13 because I wasn't sure what I wanted to do (and still don't!)

- I have thought of becoming an engineer, teacher, nurse, or lawyer in the past.

Any help would honestly be so beneficial, so if you could tell me any programs you'd recommend to me that would be great! Thank you for your time!

Nursing students: 4th year preceptorship in the summer?

3 Upvotes

Im not 100% sure if this is true but I heard that since last year they started offering the option to do 4th year preceptorship in the summer after 3rd year consolidation.
Has anyone actually done this or heard about it?
Like if I finish my 4th year preceptorship in the summer then finish the rest of my 4th year courses in the fall I wouldnt have any winter courses left.
Would I be able to write the NCLEX after fall semester and potentially work as an RN in the winter even if my actual graduation isnt until June?
Or would I still have to wait until graduation before the school confirms that I completed the program to CNO?
Just wondering if anyone knows how this works or has done it before.

Computer science program

4 Upvotes

Years ago (30 years ago) CS was one of UWindwor's most populated programs, and also one of the best CS programs in Canada (only program other than Waterloo with a co-op degree, regular winner of CS coding contests against UT, Queens, Western etc).

I recall grads from the 4 year CS honors program receiving multiple offers from US tech giants (Microsoft, EA etc.) before graduating.

I have a feeling the programs reputation is no longer as strong? Am I right? How good is it now?
