Anyone know when will school send out decision email?

Pharm might be different for you guys compared to my experience since they're changing the curriculum, but I can tell you what worked for me. It helped to make flashcards of the common prefixes and suffixes and memorizing those because knowing those gives you a big edge in figuring out what the medication is for. Another thing that worked well for me was focusing on the content on the powerpoint slides rather than the book since the slides emphasize on the info you need to score well on the quizzes and tests. You only really need the book if you want to clarify something or if the professors tell you to refer to a specific page in the book.
Thanks @hvcna91
@Iamdazzyy I called cerritos the other day and they said they will be sending it to our person email but I haven't received anything. Has anyone received something?

Hi @Kathypana1,
I haven't received anything. I'm sure it will be the same email you used for your application. They never give me a student email when I applied to obtain my student ID.
Also, for anyone who has never taken any course at Cerritos like me, I called the school today and told them I don't have access to their canvas site (in preparation for the June 1st communication). The rep responded that CANVAS will become available once you register for a course (LOL duh...why didn't I think of that). Hope this helps for those who will start in the fall as a "new" student at Cerritos.
