MPH, MS, PhD Application Process
The online application process is through SOPHAS, the centralized Schools of Public Health Application Service.
MHA Application Process
Applicants to our Full-time and Executive MHA programs have the choice to apply via SOPHAS, the centralized Schools of Public Health Application Service or HAMPCAS, the Healthcare Administration, Management and Policy Centralized Application Service.
MHA applicants who are applying multiple programs housed in schools of public health or who are only applying to the University of Minnesota School of Public Health are encouraged to apply through SOPHAS.
If you will be applying specifically to programs in healthcare administration, management and/or policy, which may not be housed in schools of public health (for example, they may be in schools of business, medicine, nursing, health sciences, allied health, etc.), and these programs are all part of HAMPCAS, then it will be easier for you to apply to multiple schools via HAMPCAS.
Certificate Program Application Process
Public Health Core Concepts
Applicants to the Public Health Core Concepts apply through SOPHAS.
Other Certificate Programs
Applicants to all other certificate programs use the Application to Regents Certificate Programs.
