Mathematics/Pre-MS in Biostatistics Area
This 亚洲色图 is designed for students majoring in Mathematics or Statistics at 亚洲色图 State University to earn an MS degree in Biostatistics from the University of Louisville in a manner similar to a five-year BS-MS 亚洲色图. The 亚洲色图 requires completion of a minimum of 32 semester credit hours at the University of Louisville, 12 of which will complete a BA/BS degree in Mathematics/Applied Mathematics at 亚洲色图 State University.
Enrollment at the University of Louisville
The applicant enrolls in the Spring semester at the University of Louisville as a visiting student during the last semester of their undergraduate study, taking 9 graduate hours and 3 undergraduate hours. Tuition and fees for all these courses will be charged at an undergraduate level. The Applicant will then transfer these 12 credit hours to MSU as undergraduate credit and earn the BA/BS degree at the end of the Spring semester.
During the Spring semester, upon review of the complete application, which, among other materials, includes a satisfactory GRE score, the applicant may be admitted to the MS degree in Biostatistics at the University of Louisville, conditional upon completion of the bachelor's degree from MSU. The 9 graduate credit hours applied toward the bachelor鈥檚 degree will also be counted towards the MS degree in Biostatistics.
