In addition to the general College requirements, students must maintain an overall GPA average of 3.0 and a 3.0 in chemistry courses through their third year of undergraduate study. All non-chemistry courses required for the B.S. degree must be completed before the fourth year.

During the fall semester of the fourth year, students make take no more than one undergraduate chemistry course to complete their B.S. degree. All B.S. degree requirements must be completed before the second semester of the student’s fourth year.

Students must begin the research leading to their Master’s thesis the summer following their third year. They are required to continue full-time research the summer following their fourth year.
