We offer 4+1 programs for students pursuing a B.S. in Animal Science, Agricultural Economics, Environmental Science, and Agribusiness, with more options planned. Applicants need a 3.0 GPA and should apply upon completing 90 credit hours. Students can take up to 9 graduate hours during their senior year, counting toward both their B.S. and MIAP. Full acceptance into the graduate college occurs after earning a bachelor's degree, allowing MIAP completion in 1–1.5 years. 

Animal Science students must complete ANSI 3423 and ANSI 3543. Ag Econ/Ag Business students must complete ECON 3023 or 3113, a calculus course, and a statistics course. 

Current OSU students do not need to resend transcripts to apply to MIAP through the Graduate College. Others must submit transcripts and pay the application fee. Additionally, MIAP requires two letters of recommendation and a purpose statement. 

Your visa requires full-time enrollment: nine credit hours in fall/spring, with at least six on-campus. Only one three-hour online course counts toward full-time status. 

• Graduate courses from another university (not counted toward a degree): Up to 9 hours transferable. 

• Graduate courses from OSU (not counted toward a degree): All hours transferable. 

• Completed master's degree: Up to 9 hours may count toward MIAP. 

Your advisory committee determines final transferability after meeting OSU credit requirements. Applies to simultaneous degrees or degrees completed in the past 10 years.  

Full-time status requires 9 hours in fall/spring and 4 hours in summer. Graduating students must enroll in at least two credit hours during their expected semester of graduation. 

Students on financial aid have other enrollment requirements and should ask the Office of Financial Aid for those requirements.
