Admissions

Admissions to the MPH program are semi-annual. While most students will be admitted to begin in fall semester, students may also begin their coursework in the spring.

Deadlines for submission of applications are April 15 for fall semester and October 15 for spring semester if enrollment is planned for spring.  Prospective students are encouraged to apply earlier.

Students may seek to take coursework as non-matriculating students.  Non-degree seeking students may be accepted up to two weeks before classes begin, and be considered for admission.  These non-matriculating students must follow the guidance of the ECU Graduate School.  Non-matriculating students may take up to 12 credit hours in the MPH program.

How to Apply

Applicants apply to the MPH program by completing a “self-managed” application to the ECU Graduate School. The application and instructions can be downloaded from the graduate school website's application information page.

All applicants to the program should submit the following to the graduate school:

• Application and fees

Applicants should then submit the following information directly to our department:

• 3 letters of recommendation
