Application Steps
- Complete the UIC application and fee: UIC requires an application and non-refundable application fee ($80 for Domestic and International applicants).
- Personal Statement, uploaded via the UIC application. It is generally recommended to keep the statement to 500-800 words and to focus on your interests/experiences in public health and the program you are applying to specifically, your goals with the degree, and why you would be successful in the program. For students applying to research focused programs, the personal statement should also address potential research interests.
- Resume or CV, uploaded via the UIC application.
- Three letters of recommendation, uploaded via the UIC application.
- Transcripts:
- Domestic Applicants must submit transcripts issued from the University for all undergraduate and post-baccalaureate work directly to UIC. Domestic students who have completed course work at foreign institutions should follow the instructions provided below for international applicants for submitting those academic credentials.
- All international transcripts must be uploaded directly into the UIC system after completing the Supplemental Application. Students uploading international transcripts must also pay a UIC International Credential Evaluation Fee. Domestic students submitting international coursework from study abroad do not pay the evaluation fee. Students admitted to the UIC School of Public Health will need to provide sealed official transcripts to the UIC Office of Admissions prior to their second term at the university.
- GRE Test Optional: Standardized test scores are optional. Test scores are not required but will be considered if an applicant chooses to submit them. If submitting GRE scores, scores should be sent to code 1851-0616.
