PREREQUISITES FOR ADMISSION

Applicants must have a bachelor of arts degree (or equivalent), and a minimum Grade Point Average of 3.0 (B) overall (4.0 scale), and a 3.0 GPA in science courses. The Graduate Record Exam (GRE) General Test is required. Applicants with a weak science background, but an otherwise strong application, may be requested to take the GRE Advanced Biology examination.

It is recommended that applicants have a strong science background, with an undergraduate major in the biological sciences, chemistry, physics or engineering. It is recommended that the applicant already have completed courses in cell biology, developmental biology, molecular biology, general and organic chemistry, physics and calculus. Performance in these courses will be assessed as a factor in the application review process. In addition, bench research experience and a publication record in the sciences will likely have a strong positive influence on Graduate Committee deliberations. Applicants must be prepared to correct deficiencies during the first year of graduate study
