Admissions

Scripps Research's doctoral program requires highly motivated individuals who thrive on challenges. There are no specific prerequisites; however, applicants should demonstrate good undergraduate training in the biomedical sciences or a related field and a strong commitment to research.

The program is bicoastal and applications are reviewed by an admissions committee composed of faculty from both the Florida and California locations. As a result, applicants may receive an offer of admission from one or both admissions committees. To be considered for admission, applicants must interview at the location from which they wish to gain admission. Admission standards are the same for both La Jolla, CA and Jupiter, FL, as well as the joint Skaggs-Oxford Program.
