Review admissions requirements for the MHA program.

MHA学生在课堂上

The 卫生管理硕士 (MHA) program accepts students each year for course commencement in the fall. Applications will be accepted until July 1 of each year or until the incoming class is full (25 students per cohort). Check with the Program Director regarding openings if applying past the deadline.

As you prepare your application package, please keep the following in mind. The application process for this graduate program is competitive. 越来越多地, the number of qualified applications received exceeds the number of students able to be accepted into the program because of the significant amount of time faculty members spend on the education and development of each graduate student. 像这样, we must make difficult admissions decisions each year that result in qualified applicants not being accepted into the program.

在申请过程中, applicants will declare whether they want to pursue the entire program in our hybrid online synchronous program or our residential on-campus program. The format you choose does not affect the admission decision. The hybrid program is only open to students residing in the United States since there is an in-person, on-campus requirement for which students must travel to San Antonio, 德州, three times throughout the 21-month program.
