Admissions
The Division of Public Health admissions deadline is March 15th. It is the applicant's responsibility to make sure the Division receives all documents by March 15th i.e. Admissions office application, recommendation letters, GRE scores, reference sheet (3), personal statement and justification letter if necessary.**

Applications, fees and transcripts must be submitted to the Admissions Office, suggested deadline of February 15th as processing could take 30 days from Admissions Office to Division of Public Health.

The remaining materials (GRE scores, 3 letters of recommendation, 3 references, and personal statement) must received no later than March 15th.

**It is necessary for a candidate with a GPA below 3.0 to also submit a justification letter.  This letter should detail why the candidate's GPA is lower than 3.0 and why they feel that they are prepared to pursue the Public Health degree in spite of their lower GPA.  This letter is different than the personal statement and will be included with the candidates application file.**
