A Morehead State University undergraduate student who has completed 80 or more credit hours toward the completion of the baccalaureate degree in Biomedical Sciences may be considered for admission into the Biology 4+1 Program. To be eligible for admission, the student must have a cumulative undergraduate GPA of at least 3.25 and a minimum earned grade of "B" in all 300- and 400-level biology (BIOL) courses completed at the time of admission. Students may earn a maximum of 12 graduate credit hours while holding undergraduate concurrent admission status.
The student must maintain a cumulative undergraduate GPA of at least 3.25 and a graduate GPA of at least 3.0 to continue in the Biology 4+1 Program. If the student drops below the minimum GPA, he or she will not be allowed to continue in the graduate component of the program; however, courses taken for graduate credit and completed with a passing grade will still count towards meeting the student's B.S. in Biomedical Sciences degree requirements.
