Many pharmacy students come to us with a common question: How can they make their application materials stand out by showcasing impactful learning, leadership, clinical, and work experiences?
To help pharmacy students create compelling application materials aligned with best practices, we've gathered and annotated samples of CVs, resumes, cover letters, and letters of intent, generously donated by School of Pharmacy alumni. These resources have been incredibly helpful to many students over the years.
The animation video below offers a different perspective on what can happen when you make unwise choices about what to include in your letters of intent for competitive positions. We hope you enjoy the story, but more importantly, we hope you don't miss the opportunity to have your documents reviewed by our office.

The samples below are donated by UCSF students, residents and alumni to offer you ideas to format and present your skills and experience.
Note: Please do not copy the text verbatim. It is unethical and unwise, as employers and residency directors may recognize our samples.
