- Completion of Core I, II and III,
- Meeting the GPA requirement set by the program. Some university programs have a higher cumulative GPA requirement because previous student grades demonstrate that level is necessary to succeed in the host institution classes. Most programs require a minimum 9.0 GPA at the time of application but some programs accept a 7.75 and above while others may have higher requirements, up to an 11.2 at Oxford. Note:The GPA requirement is determined by the program and Scripps is not able to change this.
- Completion of the minimum level for previous college language study if a language is currently taught in Claremont. (Requirements vary by language, see Language Prerequisites for details.)
- Enrollment in one specified class at most programs, either a language class or an area studies course providing cultural context for the host culture.
- A strong background in a subject area to meet class pre-requisites for upper-division courses in your major at most foreign universities. Students should have completed 2-4 courses in their major prior to program participation if planning to take upper division courses.
