Null says he holds a bachelor's degree from Thomas A. Edison State College in New Jersey and a PhD in human nutrition and public health sciences from Union Institute, Cincinnati, Ohio. Edison State, while accredited, is a "non-traditional" school with neither campus nor courses and bachelor's degrees are based on career experience, equivalent exams, and courses taken at other schools. Union Institute & University accreditation does not cover awarding of PhDs in the sciences, only in the humanities.

He uses his title for advertising purposes. According to the approval documents of the thesis(title: "A Study of Psychological and Physiological Effects of Caffeine on Human Health") the PhD committee was composed of the following people: Peter Fenner, an expert in geological sciences (totally unrelated to Null's topic), Martin Feldman, MD, a [[Alternative medicine|"complementary"]] physician (and "[[clinical ecologist after Randolph]]") who worked with Null on his books and as a backup for the radio show, Philip J. Hodes, "Practitioner Holistic, Health Detoxification & Orthomolecular Nutritionist, Consultant" and Elayne Kahn, a psychologist who co-authored a book with Null that was published in 1976. In contrast to Null's work, a regular thesis for a doctoral degree in a scientific discipline requires a genuine contribution to the scientific literature.
