Admission Requirements
In addition to meeting the requirements described under Dedman College: Admission in the General Information section of this catalog, an applicant must hold a bachelor’s degree with a major in chemistry. Applicants are required to take the GRE general graduate school admission test. If English is not the applicant’s native language, he or she must also take the TOEFL English language proficiency test and achieve a minimum score of 80 on the Internet-based test. Three letters of recommendation from individuals who have worked with the applicant must be submitted with the application.
Good Standing
A student must maintain a B average (3.000 on a 4.000 scale) and receive no more than two grades below the grade of B-. Failure to meet these requirements will result in either probation and/or dismissal from the graduate program.
