How to Apply

To be considered for admission to the Epidemiology MPH program, you must have a bachelor’s degree from an accredited institution. A minimum cumulative undergraduate GPA of 3.0 is required. There are no prerequisites to apply to the MPH program at Temple, but strong grades in mathematics and/or statistics, social sciences and writing are preferred.

This program is offered both in person and online. The application process is the same for both program options.

All applicants will be automatically considered for available merit-based scholarships at the time they are reviewed for admission. Students will be notified if they are in receipt of such scholarships either at the time of admission or very shortly thereafter.

Check on your application status and the receipt of your materials through the SOPHAS portal.
