Utah Valley University

Utah Valley University offers the  Bachelor of Science in Biotechnology through extension at Salt Lake Community College Jordan campus. This is an evening program available to students who have completed all certain lower division courses required  for transfer into the junior and senior level courses.


Students who enroll in this program are Utah Valley University (formerly Utah Valley State College ) students, and will pay Utah Valley University  tuition and fees although attending courses at the  SLCC Jordan campus.  While completing their coursework here, they will be provided with the necessary student services through the University Center, UVU and SLCC. 



In addition to fulfilling various prerequisites for the Biotechnology major, an Associate of Science Degree earned from SLCC meets all general education requirements at Utah Valley University.  Students not planning to complete an Associate of Science (A.S.) from SLCC are encouraged to meet with an advisor to understand the specific requirements in your individual situation.

ADMISSIONS:

Utah Valley University requires the application and a $35.00 application fee.  Applicants may either apply online at http://www.uvu.edu/admissions/ or by contacting the Admissions office at 801-863-8466.   Official transcripts of all previous college work must be sent to UVU Admissions.  Students interested in transferring to this program are strongly encouraged to review the admissions procedures prior to application.  

FINANCIAL AID

Students intending to support their education through financial aid should plan their courses so that they are completed at either SLCC or UVU as a “block” in that UVU does not provide a financial aid consortium agreement.

BACHELOR OF SCIENCE DEGREE REQUIREMENTS

Credit Hours     -  A total of 120 semester hours is required, 40 of the 120 hours must be upper

   division (courses numbered 3000 and above).

Lower  division courses at SLCC will  NOT be accepted as fulfilling UVSC upper 

   division hours unless noted otherwise.

Residency          -  To graduate from UVSC with a Bachelor’s degree, a student must complete 30

   credits in residence from UVSC.  UVSC courses taken on or off campus will

   count as residency hours.
