HSA has its own MSPH Admissions Committee, comprising of the Director, the MSPH Programme Coordinator, the Registrar, a Senior Faculty Member, and one nominated alumnus/alumna. The MSPH Admissions Committee has the responsibility for the selection of applicants to be admitted to the MSPH Programme. It establishes procedures for the timely review of applications to the Programme. Deferrals of admission are at the discretion of the MSPH Admissions Committee.

The applicant’s acceptance is contingent upon the receipt of all required documents including official transcripts. The MSPH Admissions Committee is responsible for identifying those students with missing documents and/or credentials which do not meet eligibility standards.

Candidates fulfilling the eligibility criteria will take a written screening exam. Based on the performance in the screening test, the candidates will be short-listed for an interview. For every seat available 3-4 candidates will be interviewed.
