Applicants must request that their folder be held over. Students should see a health science advisor to see how they might improve their points for the next year’s program. 
Health Science Advisement Session
Students are required to do an official health science advising meeting with a Health Science Advisor before the application deadline.  This meeting must be completed after all requirements have been met.  Students must submit a point sheet signed by a health science advisor as evidence that the meeting took place.

Application Process

Applicants must apply following the steps below and are evaluated for admission based upon the Selection Criteria and Point System. The applicant must provide all required information by the annual February 15th deadline to apply.

Following the application deadline, files are closed to additional information and sent to the Admissions Committee for selection. Incomplete files will not be considered for program admission. All applicants will be notified by email of their status in the program, approximately 6 – 8 weeks after the application deadline.

See a Health Science Advisor

Seeing a Health Science Advisor before the application deadline for an Advising Session is recommended. It helps you make a plan to ensure that the suggested coursework and required testing is completed before the application deadline.

Students with myEFSC access should schedule Health Sciences Advising using the link in the Student Services Appointments section of myEFSC. Future Students with no EFSC login, use the guest appointment button.
