Prerequisites

Students do not need to complete all math and science requirements before being admitted to the Clinical Laboratory Sciences program. Science and math requirements may be taken concurrently with Clinical Laboratory Science courses.

Applicants without a baccalaureate degree must complete the Texas Core Curriculum that consists of 42 semester credit hours. Some courses that satisfy core curriculum requirements may also be used to satisfy program prerequisites. For further information see the Texas General Education Core Web Center.
