NOTES:

BIO 900 is an unspecified elective that counts toward the 120 hours required for graduation. It does not, however, fulfill Marymount's Liberal Arts Core requirements.
Courses with an "NS" designation, including BIO 901, count toward Marymount's Liberal Arts Core requirement for a Natural Science with Lab.
*Note that only one equivalent of a course may be transferred in (i.e. MC's PHY 203, PHY 204, and PSC 101 are all articulated as MU's PSC 103 + PSC 103L). All additional instances will be transferred as PSC 900 (Physical Science Elective).
