See UCLA's minimum requirements for all graduate program applicants.

In addition to the University's minimum requirements and those listed above, all applicants are expected to submit the departmental application through the Schools of Public Health Application Service (SOPHAS] and a statement of purpose.

MS: Applicants who hold a prior M.P.H. or doctoral degree (e.g., M.D., D.D.S., D.V.M., Ph.D. or equivalent), or those applicants whose ultimate degree objective is the Ph.D. degree receive priority consideration. The M.S. degree may be earned as part of the process of completing requirements for the Ph.D.

Ph.D.: Approval by the department admissions committee, an academic adviser, and the department chair are required. Prior experience in the health sciences or in a related field is strongly encouraged. MPH and MS students are equally eligible to apply.
