Thank you for your interest in applying to the UCLA Fielding School of Public Health.
While the process can seem overwhelming, if you follow the steps and checklist closely, and adhere to the deadlines, your application process will be smooth. Please review all the materials prior to starting your process.
The application priority due date for the 2013-2014 academic year is December 1, 2012. Early applications are encouraged, to ensure timely receipt of all required documentation. Applications received after the December 1st deadline may be considered, but will have reduced opportunities for admission, financial support, and housing.
Please note, you must complete an online application thru SOPHAS (the common application for public health schools), complete an online UCLA Graduate Division application, and send an official set of transcripts directly to the Fielding School. Application to the UCLA School of Public Health is made possible through the on-line centralized Schools of Public Health Application Service (SOPHAS) and UCLA’s on-line Graduate Division Application.
Once all your application materials have been received and processed you will receive an e-mail notice from the Fielding School of Public Health’s Student Affairs Office that your application is complete and being forwarded to the department for review. If you are missing documents, you will be notified that your application is incomplete with a request for you to forward the necessary documents.
Please note, incomplete applications will not be forwarded to the department for review by the admissions committee.
