U Of A Pharmacy Oop Considerations?

[wat3vr007]

Hi guys. My question has 2 parts. 

 

I am going to be applying to pharmacy schools in the next cycle as a non-trad and I currently reside in Ontario. I will be finishing my fourth year this year, however I may need a 5th due finishing a couple pre-reqs. 

However, I am generally interested into applying to Alberta mostly because my bigger family lives there, and my parents are thinking of making the switch 1 or 2 year down the road pending on some circumstances here.

So I want to plan accordingly and I am not sure if I should go to Alberta live with my family in the mean time of waiting to apply for pharmacy, or if I should stay here in case somethings dont work out with my family and still apply to UofA and get the same chances? 

 

Anyone have any advice? I am not sure if I missed it if UofA takes a certain % of OOP residents etc. 

 

Thanks
