In addition to the Graduate College minimum requirements, applicants must meet the following program requirements: Students must meet the admissions criteria of both programs and are admitted separately to each through their respective applications. All students should contact the MS Program Coordinator who will explain the application process for MS CTS admissions. For students applying to both programs simultaneously, MS CTS admission will be contingent upon both admission to the MD program and the support of the College of Medicine dean of educational affairs. Prior to admitting students into the MS CTS degree, HPA will check with COM to determine whether the student has been accepted into the MD program. Admission to the MS CTS program will be determined based on the support of the College of Medicine dean of educational affairs, previous academic achievement, research potential, and commitment to CTS as evidenced by prior participation in clinical research.
