Our Program
Transferring Credits
The Medical Sciences Semester team is always happy to work with students and their sending schools before, during, and after a student’s semester. The MSS schedule utilizes a 90-minute block schedule, which allows for each one-block course to meet five times every two weeks. Because students are only with us for one semester, each block is equivalent to .5 credits. Semester students enroll in 4.25- 4.75 credits for a student, depending on their use of their free block.
