If accepted into the Masters program will I be funded?
No. The department does not fund regular Master's students. You can apply for graduate student instructor (GSI) positions through the Program in Biology, but you are not guaranteed a position.
Domestic Master's students are encouraged to contact the Office of Financial Aid.
Can I move directly from the Masters Program into the Ph.D. program?
No. All Ph.D. applications must go through the same application process and review. The Masters program is not a stepping stone to admission to the doctoral program.
