I'm trying to decide between University of Washington MCB and Scripps (San Diego) for my PhD program. I liked the research the most at Scripps and have been offered a Skaggs Fellowship, which basically provides my own funding for the first 3 years. However, I had the best interview weekend at UW and really enjoyed all the current students (they seemed super happy) and liked Seattle the best. Does anyone have any thoughts on these two programs that could help me decide??? Thanks!
