The LSU School of Public Health in New Orleans is excited to announce the launch of our new 3.0+ Scholars Pledge, a program designed to recognize and retain the brightest minds in Louisiana.

Starting the 2024-2025 academic year, any student who is a Louisiana resident or who earned their undergraduate degree from a Louisiana university with a GPA of 3.0 or higher will be automatically accepted into our Master of Public Health (MPH) program. This initiative aims to nurture and retain homegrown talent, ensuring a strong and innovative future for health prevention and public health leadership throughout the state.

By participating in the 3.0+ Scholars Pledge, students will benefit from a streamlined admissions process and immediate entry into a rigorous and supportive academic environment dedicated to advancing public health.

For more information about the 3.0+ Scholars Pledge and how to apply, please visit our website at sph.lsuhsc.edu.

Together, let’s build a healthier Louisiana!
