Criteria for Program Selection
 

Enrollment in the program is limited . Meeting the admissions requirements does not guarantee program acceptance. For this reason, the selection committee uses the following criteria to determine which applicants will be admitted. Applicants will be ranked according to the number of natural science and general education courses required in program that have been successfully completed (see table below). Please note that there is no waiting list.
