What is more important, scientific aptitude or artistic ability?
They are both important in the admission process. We won’t consider an applicant for admission unless they have at least a 3.0 average in the required science courses and a combined verbal and quantitative GRE score of 1000. We then evaluate and rate the preliminary portfolios on a competitive basis, and invite the top candidates for a personal interview. This gives us a chance to evaluate the applicants’ interpersonal communication skills, which are important when deciding who will be accepted for admission.
