　　A cumulative GPA of 3.0 or higher is preferred however, applicants with a lower GPA are still considered for admission. The GRE is a standardized examination reflective of an individual’s ability to be successful in a rigorous program of study and is required for admittance to most graduate degree programs worldwide. A combined score of 300 or greater in the written and quantitative sections and 3.5 or greater in the verbal section are preferred however, applicants with scores lower are still considered. Each section of the GRE is weighted equally. The field of public health is a corner stone of community service and outreach. Related experience serving rural populations or otherwise addressing needs for underserved populations is preferred. Related experience does not have to be within the field of public health but may demonstrate dedication to a topic or populations, skills in leadership, etc. Personal Statement
