Degree-Specific Admissions Requirements |

In addition to the University's minimum requirements and those listed above, all applicants are expected to submit a statement of purpose. Applicants are expected to hold a bachelor's degree, with preparation through upper division courses in genetics, biology, molecular biology, cell biology, or other life sciences fields. Because of the data analysis expertise required in some areas of human genetics, advanced courses in statistics or computer science may be substituted for advanced biologically-oriented courses. More advanced degrees (M.S., M.D. or equivalent) are also acceptable. |
