Prerequisites of the Program

Applicants must have substantial undergraduate training in the life sciences, with an undergraduate cumulative grade point average of at least 3.0. Applicants must submit Graduate Record Examination scores for the general test to the Graduate School. Applicants must contact potential advisers early in the application process because acceptance is contingent upon securing a prospective major adviser prior to admission. Three letters of recommendation are required. Contact the OEB Office, tel. (413) 545-0928, or email: oeb@bio.umass.edu or view the program’s website, www.bio.umass.edu/oeb, for further information about the program.
