Sorry for posting (almost) back-to-back.
I've looked through this thread (and a few of the threads for the previous years), but does anyone have additional information on petitioning the genetics requirement? I took three courses that covered Genetics, each with increased detail throughout undergrad and one of the courses explicitly mentioned Genetics as one of the topics that would be covered in the course description.
I'm definitely going to call admissions on Monday for more details, but since this acceptance came so late in the game I'm scared that I'll withdraw from my other options only to find that OHSU rescinded my acceptance.
OHSU won't rescind your acceptance. If they want you to take an official genetics class you'll have until the beginning of school to complete it. I believe students in the past have had luck with online genetics classes taken over the summer. Agreed that if you're something like a bio major then genetics is covered in so many other classes, it's silly.
