How do I apply for the joint programs in Public Health and Social Welfare?
You must apply to each degree program separately. Follow the application requirements for each program, Asian American Studies and either Public Health or Social Welfare. That is, if the Public Health program requires GRE scores for admissions, you must send the department your scores. In the statements of purpose for both applications, be sure to indicate that you are a joint program applicant and the joint program to which you are applying. For information regarding the joint program in Social Welfare, please see the departmental website at http://www.spa.ucla.edu/sw/. There is currently no faculty contact for the joint program in Social Welfare. However, we are taking applications for the joint program for the 2010-2011 academic year until further notice. For information regarding the joint program in Public Health, please see the departmental website at http://www.ph.ucla.edu/. The faculty contact for the joint program with Public Health is Prof. Marjorie Kagawa-Singer.
