Biological Sciences Major Changes
  • Biological Sciences will no longer be allowing STAT 201 or 206 (or any other STAT course) to be used in place of STAT 205.
  • All Biological Sciences majors must take STAT 205. Even transfer students who come in with credit for STAT 201 or 206.
  • Because some May and August graduates have already been told STAT 201 or 206 is ok, this will not apply to those groups.
  • But Biological Sciences majors graduating in December 2022 or later must take STAT 205. No exceptions.
  • See Attached for more information.
