Doctor of Health Administration Admissions Requirements
Application Procedures
The Doctor of Health Administration program is designed for fall entry. Applicants should submit all application materials no later than April 15 to be considered for acceptance for the fall semester.  Applications received after this date will be considered on a space available basis.

Along with a completed application form and application fee, applicants must provide:

  • A current institutional organizational chart with his/her position highlighted
  • A current position description
  • Three professional references who can address prior academic and professional performance
  • A 1,000-word career goal statement and a current resume
  • Official transcripts from all baccalaureate and graduate degrees

After initial screening, final candidates may be interviewed.

Entrance Requirements
Applicants must have considerable experience in a management or policy position in the health care field. Applicants will be expected to have a master’s degree in Health Administration, Business Administration, Public Health, or Public Administration or a post baccalaureate professional degree (MD, JD, etc.). Applicants must demonstrate knowledge equivalent to graduate-level course work (either through previous graduate course work, or through professional experience) in health finance, statistics, organizational behavior, health economics, and epidemiology. Applicants without substantial background courses/knowledge will be required to make up deficiencies.

Standardized national admissions tests are not required for applicants with post-baccalaureate degrees.
