It is important to submit application materials that clearly demonstrate strong quantitative skills, (e.g., quantitative coursework on your academic transcripts or quantitative scores on standardized tests).
- Clear career goals that are consistent with your anticipated training. It is important to clearly communicate how an MPH degree fits in with your overall career goals.
- At least two years of full-time, post-baccalaureate, health-related work experience or a doctoral degree in a field underlying public health. This requirement is waived for applicants who are medical students or applicants to the JD/MPH, MSW/MPH, and the MSN/MPH combined degree programs.
