[Students in Biology and Chemistry, please note: When a strong student has been able to convince us that he or she is sure to go on to a PhD program, and to pursue a career in teaching, we have sometimes been able to admit such students to the MMUF program. Such students, however, are not eligible for all of the benefits of the program.]
