The Scripps College Blueprint (The Claremont 5C Shield)

Scripps gives you 300 words to show how you fit their collaborative humanities environment while utilizing the wider Claremont Colleges network.

The Claremont Colleges Mock Trial (CCMT)

• What it is: A massive, elite, combined 5C Consortium program that draws the top legal minds from Scripps, Claremont McKenna, Pomona, Pitzer, and Harvey Mudd. They share coaching staff and fight on the highest national AMTA circuits.
• Your Phrasing Vector: Explain that you want to combine the intimate, supportive seminar training of Scripps with the raw, competitive energy of CCMT. It proves you can be a supportive classmate by day and a fierce corporate litigator by afternoon.

The Scripps Core Curriculum in Interdisciplinary Studies [1]

• What it is: A mandatory, three-semester sequence (Core I, II, and III) unique to Scripps that forces students to analyze complex global issues through lenses of ethics, structural power, and community dialogue. [1, 2, 3, 4]
