Genetics Course as Substitute for Biology? USF PA Program

[Dayker]

Hello,

Does anyone know if USF PA program accepts "Genetics" as a "Biology" course?

Thanks in advance,

Dayker Fernandez PA Applicant.

The most accurate answer will come from the program directly.  

FWIW, I doubt it.  Schools don't often allow substitutions.  Biology is a pretty standard foundation course that precedes nearly everything else.

Thank you for the reply. The reason I am asking is because under "Prerequisites" they have "One other Biology course - 1 Semester (or semester hour equivalent"

I know genetics is an advanced biology course. I have an appointment with them in a couple of weeks. I was just wondering if anyone here knew the answer.

I dont think they do. I had bio 1 and bio 2 and genetics this past year when I applied to their program
