Pre-Application Requirements

Medical students enrolled at Einstein who are pursuing their MDs, have successfully completed the Fall 2019 semester at Einstein, and are in good academic standing, may enroll in online core courses at CUNY SPH, taken on a non-matriculated basis, during the Summer 2020 session. Such students will continue their full-time coursework at Einstein during their second and third years. During the Fall semester of their third year, these students may formally apply for admission to the MPH program via a no-fee, fast-track application.

Those Einstein students in the 4+1 pathway who participate in an Einstein-sponsored practical experience such as the Einstein Global Health Fellowship, may register for a CUNY SPH fieldwork course and use the Einstein practical experience to fulfill their fieldwork requirement for an MPH.

Application Requirements

To be eligible for the CUNY SPH fast-tracked application process, students must have remained in good academic standing at Einstein by the end of their second year and have a cumulative GPA in their CUNY SPH online courses of 3.7 or greater. If admitted to the program, students will follow the degree completion schedule (4+1 pathway) detailed in the Recommended Course Sequence section of this page.

Einstein students who do not meet the criteria for the CUNY SPH fast-track application process may complete the standard SPH application available on SOPHAS and pay the application fee to have their application reviewed by the SPH Admissions Committee for decision.

Students will be required to meet with the coordinator/advisor from each institution upon entering the program to confirm degree requirements, course sequencing, and research plans, and then at least once per semester thereafter.
