Important Note
Consult the admissions/application web
pages of the professional programs for information on required
pre-requisite courses and admissions tests, application procedures, and
application deadlines. Some professional/graduate programs will not
accept AP or CLEP credits, online courses, or correspondence courses for
the core science and math pre-requisite requirements. Many programs
also require that all pre-requisite coursework be completed within a
certain period of time, e.g., within 5 years prior to application.
Policies vary by school and program. Be sure you know the requirements.
