NOTE:
A total of 128 credits minimum is required for graduation. Award of a second BS in CLS requires 38 credits earned beyond the completion of the requirements for the first degree. Credits used for the second degree cannot be used to fulfill requirements for the first degree.

Students planning to attend other professional schools after completing the degree in CLS are strongly advised to check the requirements of those professional schools, particularly regarding requirements in Physics, Organic Chemistry, and course prerequisites.

If a student meets all degree requirements with the exception of BIOL 411N (Clinical Experience) they may be awarded a BS degree in CLS, but will not be eligible to take the boards.
