The Interdepartmental Undergraduate Neuroscience Program of Johns Hopkins University

Students who are interested in applying for the B.A./M.S. program may do so either in the Junior or Senior year of undergraduate study. Application packets will be prepared each September and majors will be notified via email. Students meeting the minimum requirements for consideration will need to schedule an appointment with the Neuroscience Academic Coordinator, Bobbie Tchopev, to detail a timeline for completion of both degrees. At the conclusion of this meeting, qualifying students will be given relevant application materials.

 

A complete application will include:

• An Application for Admission for Graduate Study (includes a 1/2 page, single line, essay about why you are applying to this program and what you would liek to accomplish; use an extra page if you need more space),
• An Academic Records Release Waiver,
• A Student/Mentor Contract,
• Two letters of recommendation (one of the two recommendations must be from the student's research mentor.),
• An official transcript,
• A timeline for completion of the B.A./M.S. program (students will receive this upon meeting with the Neuroscience Academic Program Administrator), and,
• A Research Proposal.

Completed application packets must be submitted to the Neuroscience Academic Program Administrator by 4:00 pm on October 4, 2008 for Spring 2009. Deadlines for following years will be announced each September to all Juniors and Seniors via email.
