documentation may be submitted to otadmissions@towson.edu. Course work can be completed, in progress, or planned at the time you submit this form. If

Prerequisite Completion Admission Requirements: 2020 Admission Cycle
You must have successfully completed at least 6 of the 10 prerequisite courses, one of which must be Human Anatomy & Physiology I, by the application deadline;
you must complete all 10 prerequisite courses prior to entering the program. Transcripts must be verified through OTCAS by November 1, 2019 for coursework to
be considered in our review process. Applicants who have incomplete prerequisites at the time of an admission offer will be required to provide additional official
proof that the prerequisites are complete prior to entering the program.
With the exception of Physics, all prerequisite coursework must be completed with a grade of ‘B-‘ (2.67) or higher. Human Anatomy & Physiology I and Human
Anatomy & Physiology II must each include an in-person lab and be completed within five calendar years of the application deadline: completed FALL 2014 or more
recently for the 2020 admission cycle. Physics must include an in-person lab and must be completed with a grade of ‘C’ (2.0) or higher.
Online courses, ACE, or UExcel exams may not be used for Anatomy & Physiology I, Anatomy & Physiology II, and Physics. AP scores of 4 or 5 and CLEP scores of 60
or higher can be used for non-science prerequisites only if documentation of the actual score is provided. Otherwise, all prerequisite coursework must be taken
through a regionally accredited institution and appear on an official transcript with a letter grade awarded.
