Undergraduates seeking admission to the dual degree program must have a minimum overall GPA of 3.0 and are eligible to apply in the Spring semester of the junior year (the deadline for applications is March 1). To apply for admission, candidates must submit the following materials to the Graduate Admissions Office:

Following review of all application materials, admission to the dual degree program will require the approval of the Graduate Program Director, the Division Head of Mathematics and Sciences, and the Dean of the School of Arts and Sciences. Accepted students will be permitted to take no more than six credits of graduate course work during the senior year of undergraduate study.
