Applications for admission to the Rutgers School of Public Health are encouraged from qualified college graduates with a Baccalaureate degree who desire training in the disciplines of public health and who have realistic plans for utilizing what they learn. Most students are admitted in matriculated status in the MPH, MS, or PhD degree programs. Applicants are accepted to a specific department on a specific campus. A smaller number, often those not meeting all of the admission criteria, are admitted in non-matriculated status. These students normally are permitted to take up to 12 credits of coursework and, if they achieve a cumulative grade point average of 3.0 or better, to matriculate in the MPH program. The School also accepts visiting students and certificate students for limited amounts of coursework. Upon receipt of an acceptance letter, students are required to send a non-refundable $100.00 seat deposit to the campus that they will be attending, which is applied to the first tuition bill when the student registers. The check is payable to Rutgers School of Public Health.
