Texas Woman's University

What you'll study

During the initial three years the curriculum provides broad pre‑clinical preparation in areas such as biology, chemistry, physics and analytical methods. In the senior year students enter a clinical sequence that combines classroom instruction in subjects like hematology and parasitology with supervised, hands‑on laboratory training at an approved clinical partner.

Entry requirements

TWU evaluates applicants based on academic achievement, preparation and standardized test scores. Admission to the university is valid for four terms unless the applicant has attended another higher education institution. Prospective students should consult TWU admissions for full procedural details and contact the Office of Admissions or the biology department for programme questions.

Career prospects

Graduates are prepared to work as members of health‑services laboratory teams performing diagnostic testing. Completion of the degree qualifies graduates to sit for the National Registry Examination for certification as an MLS (ASCP), a common credential for clinical laboratory employment.

Scholarships & funding angle

Students should explore university undergraduate scholarships, departmental awards and external funding opportunities for healthcare and STEM students; contact TWU’s Office of Admissions or the biology department for guidance on available financial aid and application procedures.
