For admission to the graduate program, students must:
Prospective students must complete the application for graduate study and submit:
The Graduate Record Examination (GRE) is not required for admission, although GRE scores are helpful to the admissions committee, especially for international applicants. Applicants with at least a B average as undergraduates have a good chance of acceptance. Applicants with an average below a B may be admitted based on extenuating circumstances, relevant work experience, or other factors.
Admissions are on a rolling basis. Because of the time required to obtain a student visa, the deadline for international applicants for fall admission is May 1.
All admitted students enter the Biology Department as regularly matriculated students or (on an initial provisional basis) nondegree students.
Students interested in the biotechnology concentration must first be admitted to the M.S. program in Biology through the regular application process and complete one semester (12 credits) of graduate courses.
Admission will be based on previous record, performance at Adelphi, and potential for success in biotechnology.
