BS in Biology
by Melanie Writer 12 Feb '25

12 Feb '25

Dear Biology Majors, We have some exciting news! Starting in Fall 2025, we are planning to offer a BS in Biology in place of the current BA in Biology. If you are graduating in May or August 2025, this change will have no impact on you. If you are planning to graduate after August 2025, you will be able to remain in the BA program or switch into the BS program. This decision should have no impact on your timeline to degree completion. Starting in September 2025, you will be able to change your declaration of major to the BS in Biology if desired. If you have any questions, please contact your advisor or biology(a)sandiego.edu. Best regards, *Melanie Writer* Executive Assistant, Biology Department University of San Diego mwriter(a)sandiego.edu 619-260-4729
