The top ten public health colleges generally require applicants to score above GRE320 (composition 3.5 or 4.0), TOEFL 100 (or IELTS 7.0), and the undergraduate GPA is generally required to be above 3.0, preferably above 3.5.
2. Have a strong interest in public health. The top ten schools require applicants to submit personal application statements and resumes, in order to examine the applicant's understanding and strong interest in this major. Because public health service has a strong public welfare and service nature, if the applicant can show his future planning and responsibility in the field of public health through the above documents, it will be welcomed by the school.
3. Have a certain medical background. Because most public health majors are closely related to medicine, foreign students with a certain medical background who have participated in domestic or international public health projects (such as professional publicity and education on AIDS or other infectious diseases) will have more chances of admission.
4. Internship or full-time work experience. Except for a few doctoral programs that require specialized academic research, most graduate programs in the field of public health attach great importance to practical experience. If the applicant has internship or full-time work experience in relevant enterprises, it will also help him stand out from the fierce competition.
5. Volunteer experience (especially international volunteer projects). In addition, for the application of public health specialty, it is necessary to reflect the applicant's service spirit and dedication, and the applicant can also strive to improve in this respect, which will play a icing on the cake for the application.
