* Students may be admitted lacking up to 12 credits of courses required for admission. Students must fulfill these conditions within their first three semesters of matriculation. Courses taken to fulfill conditions do not count toward the master's degree.
**With the approval of the graduate mathematics adviser, students who have had substantial coverage of a given area within an undergraduate curriculum may be allowed to replace a course or courses in this category with electives, preferably elective courses at a more advanced level in the same area.
*** Although students are required to take EITHER STAT 612 OR STAT 614, students are encouraged to take both courses.
