What is the process for joint degree applicants?

Yale Jackson School offers joint degrees with Yale Law School, Yale School of Management, Yale School of the Environment, and Yale School of Public Health. Candidates should apply to the both school at the same time or while in their first year at the joint school. However, you must apply and be admitted to each school separately. Financially, each school handles financial aid and scholarships separately. Jackson’s financial aid is prorated based on the semester a student is in residence at Jackson.

Joint degree candidates typically start at Jackson in their first year, attend the partner school in their second year, and then complete the remainder of their semesters with consultation from the Dean of Students from both schools. All take 3 years, except for the MPP/JD which takes 4 years.
