Each course must be a semester in length or equivalent quarter units. A quarter unit is equal to 2/3 of a semester unit. All Biology, General Chemistry and General Physics courses must have a lab section. Grades of C or better in each course are required. Go to www.assist.org to find equivalencies at CA community colleges.
| CSULB Course | Description | Semester Units |
|---|---|---|
| BIOL 208 | Human Morphology (Anatomy) | 4 |
| BIOL 211 A & B | Biological Sciences I & II | 5,5 |

Biol 211 A will be taught for the last time in spring, 08 and 211 B will be taught for the last time in fall, 08.
The new sequence includes:
Biol 111, 111L, Biol 212, 212L, and either Biol 207 or Biol 213, 213L for a total of 12 units.
Upon acceptance into the program, graduate students are considered conditionally classified students and complete the CSULB coursework with either a grade of "B" or better in each course or an overall average of 3.0 or better in all coursework and an overall GPA in graduate school of 3.0 to automatically advance to the professional program as unconditionally classified students.

* courses are offered at CSULB.
Students who are undergraduates at CSULB may take some courses as electives for some undergraduate degrees. For example, Biology, Physiology Option allows substitution of nearly all courses as requirements for the degree and Kinesiology, Exercise Science Option allows some courses as electives. Undergraduates should also earn either a "B" in each course or a B average in all courses attempted.
Students who have a Bachelors Degree and want to take these courses before applying to the program may take these courses through Open University, space permitting after all accepted students have registered.
