Master of Public Health Program
Apply anytime between August 16, 2023 and June 1, 2024.
Admission decisions are sent at the end of each month from January to June.
We join many other programs at Oregon State and other peer institutions across the country who have eliminated this structural barrier to promote a more equitable, diverse and inclusive student body.
The MPH program will require two separate applications.
Different fees are associated with each application. For fee information see:
Final SOPHAS applications must be submitted by June 1, 2024 by 8:59PM Pacific Time (11:59 PM Eastern Time).
Applications are reviewed on a monthly basis from December 1 (priority) to June 1 (final). Applications are reviewed on a rolling (monthly) basis.
Example: Applications submitted on or before January 1 are reviewed in January with decisions sent out in early February.
Materials required in SOPHAS:
International students are required to obtain a WES evaluation of international coursework as part of the SOPHAS application, as well as send TOEFL, Duolingo or IELTS scores to provide proof of English language competency. See Graduate Admissions - International Applicants for more information about international graduate student requirements.
You will need to create an account on SOPHAS and follow their instructions to apply. There is a fee, as well as waivers and an assistance program.
Submit your application through SOPHAS.
Complete the Oregon State Graduate School supplemental application
After you submit your application through SOPHAS, the Oregon State Graduate School supplemental application will be sent to you via email after the deadline.
Though there is no official deadline for the supplemental application, this form must be submitted before you can be notified of any official decision.
To apply to OSU’s scholarships, you will be using ScholarDollars.
ScholarDollars allows you to review multiple institutional scholarships where you can apply to the awards you are eligible for. Once we have emailed you the supplemental application, you will be able to apply for scholarships with your ID number. Remember to apply by the scholarship deadline.
Additionally, for assistantships, be sure to indicate your interest in your application. You will not need to submit another application for assistantships, but instead interested applicants who are admitted to the graduate program are considered for graduate assistantships. If awarded, you will receive a notification via email of the assistantship offer.
Lastly, be sure to review if you qualify for the Western Regional Graduate Program (WRGP). This can help qualifying participants to save as much as $6000 a year in tuition.
