To apply for the PHNS program, a supplemental application is required. The application will be sent via email after a student is admitted to either the College of Public Health or the College of Nursing.
To ensure you receive the supplemental application, please select pre-public health and pre-nursing as your first and second major choices on the University of Kentucky application. You can choose either major as your first or second choice as shown below.
Complete the supplemental application by January 15, 2025 to be considered for the program. Admission decisions will be made in February 2025.

The University of Kentucky College of Public Health is undergoing a review by the Council on Education for Public Health (CEPH) for re-accreditation. Part of this process includes the invitation to provide third-party comments. Anyone, including students, alumni, employers, community partners, etc., is allowed to share relevant information about the college directly with CEPH. If you would like to provide input to CEPH to inform their review, send your comments to submissions@ceph.org by May 4th, 2025.
