MSBio Articulation Agreements
What is an articulation or linkage agreement? This is a formal arrangement between two schools where one school agrees to offer something to a student who meets specific criteria at the other school. In the context of our graduate program, these articulation agreements provide you with specific benefits from certain professional programs upon completion of our program. These benefits are generally in the form of a guaranteed interview as long as you meet specific GPA requirements in our program. This is a substantial benefit to you as a student because not only do you now have the opportunity to improve your science GPA in our program, you may now have an opportunity to interview with a professional school for entry to their program. We sincerely look forward to helping you achieve this. Listed below are the current agreements we have with professional programs.
