The program begins in August, and the length of the program varies with the three options.
Admission is on a competitive basis.
Scores are tallied and applicants ranked based on the scores. Admission to the program is open to qualified students regardless of race, color, religion, national origin, sex, disability or veteran status. The decision to admit an applicant to pursue graduate study at MSU is based upon evaluations of both qualitative and quantitative information. The graduate nutrition program may prescribe requirements in addition to the above conditions described for regular admission. Meeting minimum requirements for admission does not necessarily guarantee admission into the nutrition program.
