Your application to the PhD in Nutrition Sciences is completed through the UAB Graduate School admissions process. The PhD program in Nutrition Sciences accepts admission for the fall term only.

The PhD Admissions Committee begins their review of completed applications on February 1 for the upcoming fall term. Please note that if February 1 falls on a weekend, the deadline for complete applications is the last business day in January. It is recommended that students submit their application prior to February 1 to allow time for processing. We strongly recommend for international students to complete the application process at least 2 weeks prior to the application deadline of February 1.

Students who are competitive for the PhD program have an overall undergraduate GPA of 3.5 with a degree in a recognized field of biological, physical, chemical, agricultural, or engineering science from an accredited university . While the GRE is not required, you may submit your scores if your application is strengthened with the score. The admissions committee considers a GRE score (verbal + quantitative) of 310 to be competetive. The GRE must have been taken within the past 5 years to be considered.

For international students, there is an expected minimum score of 80 on the TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language), 6.5 on the IELTS (International English Language Testing System), or 53 on the PTEA (Pearson Test of English Academic). If you are an international student, please contact the UAB International Affairs office.
