Hi all! This thread hasn't been started that I see. I am looking ahead at schools to apply this this next year. Barry is one of them. I'm having trouble locating a 600 level chemistry course... I haven't found a local university that teaches grad level chemistry with lab. If they do, I have to take some of their pre req classes. Which would put me back in applying a lot.
I called the office and I was told there are schools that do it, however I was not able to get any names. Any help or someone that can provide further explanation? None of the online schools teach graduate chemistry as well.
It seems they just changed this requirement in the middle of last years application cycle- per other threads. They used to be okay with just general chem.
"Successful completion (grade B or better) of one graduate-level college chemistry course (600 level and above) with a laboratory component. The course (not laboratory component) must have been taken within five years of beginning the Program. Organic chemistry or biochemistry is strongly preferred. In addition, one previous additional science/mathematics course (examples include anatomy, physiology, pharmacology, physics, genetics, statistics, and algebra) is required"

When I first applied on 6/4, I had only completed General Chemistry I. After enrolling in Biochem, I emailed the school and was invited for an interview on 8/29. When I received my acceptance call today, they just asked me to send my final transcript once I finish the class which is in 4 weeks

Congrats! So in other words I probably won't hear back unless I decide to take another chem course l😂😂😂

I would say more rolling. The thing is you can apply early, but called for an interview much later. It is based on when you apply and your stats/overall application package. They are trying to find the best candidates for their program.

Can you share what your timeline was in terms of when you applied and were called? Congratulations! I hope to be alongside you next year.

Congratulations to all!!!
What campus did each of you choose?
It can't hurt to apply if all of your stats are strong. Maybe reach out and see what they say at Barry. We really can't answer that 100% for you. Good Luck.
