Admissions
The Chemical Biology program uses a holistic process to evaluate applications. Applicants have the option to submit GRE scores (both subject and general) if they prefer. Submitted GRE scores will be considered though they are not required and in recent years the number of applicants submitting GRE scores has decreased. Information on fee waivers can be found on the GSAS website. Please refer to the GSAS Admissions page for further information on applying. Some of the most important details are noted here for your convenience.
Requirements
We require online submission of the application. Applicants are required to submit a scanned copy of their transcript(s) online. GRE scores, both subject and general, are not required.
Applicants must hold the equivalent of a U.S. bachelor's degree (BA or BS) from an institution of recognized standing (either a three- or four-year undergraduate degree).
Submitting Supplemental Materials
