Curriculum
IMPORTANT: This program has been exempted from the IU Indianapolis General Education Core; site updated to reflect that change.
Before entering the program, students must complete the minimum program requirements listed below. Students should consult with their academic advisors for appropriate courses and semester sequence to complete prerequisites. Prerequisite courses must be completed by the end of the spring to the year of entry. Prerequisites may be taken at any accredited college or university. If courses are taken at a different college, it is the student’s responsibility to request an “official transcript” from the college(s) and have them sent to the IU Admission’s Office for consideration to transfer. A student application is considered “complete” when all college transcripts have been reviewed by the admissions office. Courses that transfer will be noted on the students IU transcript.
