DHA Degree
Early Admission Opportunity for the Doctor of Health Administration Program
The Department of Health Administration offers an exclusive Early Admission (EA) process for applicants who meet specific criteria exceeding those required for general admission. This opportunity provides candidates the potential for an earlier interview and notification of admission to the program, prior to the regular admissions cycle.
Early Admission Deadline:
All documents must be submitted by September 15th each year.
Applicants will be initially scored based on Phase One Criteria:
- Overall GPA earned in the most recent graduate degree.
- GRE (or equivalent assessment) verbal and quantitative reasoning scores.
- GRE (or equivalent assessment) analytical writing score.
Admission Process
EA applicants may constitute up to 50% of the incoming cohort.
The DHA Admissions Committee will evaluate applicants based on their Phase One results and performance during interviews (Phase Two) held between mid-November and mid-December. A final vote will determine admission to the upcoming cohort.
EA candidates will receive final notification of admission by the end of December.
Additional Admission Consideration
Applicants not admitted through the Early Admission process will remain in the applicant pool for the regular admission cycle. These applicants will be reevaluated based on their Early Admission Phase One and Phase Two results, with the regular application deadline remaining February 1.Take advantage of this opportunity to secure your place early in the Doctor of Health Administration program and start your journey toward leadership excellence.
