Time Limit

The program is designed to be completed in two years under full-time status enrollment for students in the Biological Sciences track and three years for students in the Biology Education track. The degree program must be completed within six successive calendar years from the initial acceptance semester. Students in programs that remain incomplete after six successive years must reapply for admission to the Graduate Education program. Note that course credits completed in excess of six years prior to the time of readmission are not eligible for use in the student’s revised Plan of Study. Also, reapplication to the Graduate Education program under these circumstances does not guarantee readmission.
