MPH Applications
All applications for the Master of Public Health (MPH) program are submitted online to the Colorado School of Public Health through the SOPHAS online application portal. No required admissions documents should be sent directly to Colorado State University. Individuals can choose up to two concentrations to apply to within the MPH program and these are considered as a first and second choice.
The preferred application completion date is January 15. Those whose applications aren’t reviewable until after January 15 may miss out on some financial aid opportunities, but will still be considered for admission. Applicants should plan accordingly knowing that it can take SOPHAS up to 4 weeks to process an application. Detailed instructions for international applicants can be found on the ColoradoSPH website.
