Recommended Application Timeline
Submitted applications in SOPHAS must have a status of “verified” by the application deadline in order to be considered for admission to the Vanderbilt MPH Program.
The SOPHAS verification process can take several weeks after the application has been e-submitted. We recommend submitting your application at least two weeks prior to the deadline to ensure that SOPHAS is able to verify it and you have time to do any troubleshooting, if necessary.
