Graduate Programs Admission

For admission to the graduate program leading to a Master of Science (M.S.) in Biology, students must hold a bachelor's degree in biology, biology, biochemistry or a related field. They must complete the application for graduate study and submit:
  • A personal essay
  • Official transcripts
  • Three letters of recommendation

For admission to the graduate program leading to a M.S. with a concentration in biotechnology, students must: 

  • Have been admitted to and completed 12 credits in the Master of Science program in Biology
  • Have taken GRE, or scored above 450 on GMAT. This is a requirement to take graduate courses in the School of Business. The required exam could be taken while a student was already enrolled in the M.S. program in Biology
  • Submit a letter to the Biology Graduate Committee

Admission will be based on the student's academic record, performance at Adelphi, and potential for success in biotechnology.

Students who do not meet all the course requirements may be admitted as nonmatriculated students. For more information contact:
