The College of Public Health uses the Schools of Public Health Application Service (SOPHAS) www.sophas.org for applications to all programs, except for the MHA program which uses either SOPHAS or HAMPCAS. All applicants are encouraged to submit their completed applications through SOPHAS prior to the stated application deadline to ensure timely delivery of your application to the College of Public Health for review. This includes submitting all transcripts, test scores, letters of recommendation, and CV/resumes directly to SOPHAS prior to stated deadlines. Applicants may take tests such as the GRE up to application deadlines but not after to qualify for review.
Applicants should check the SOPHAS or HAMPCAS portal periodically to ensure that all required documents have been received by SOPHAS or HAMPCAS, and that the completed application has been forwarded to the College of Public Health for review. Please note that it can take SOPHAS or HAMPCAS up to three to four weeks to process and send your application to the College of Public Health.
