If you have not yet applied to Winthrop, please contact the Winthrop University Admissions Office. If you have not been advised by the College of Arts and Sciences Student Services Office contact them at College of Arts & Sciences Student Services. If you have specific questions about the Biology Departments Programs contact the department office at 803/323-2111.
