Admission Policies

All materials submitted become the permanent property of the MGH Institute of Health Professions Office of Student Affairs and may not be photocopied for individual use, returned or forwarded to other agencies.
Information given falsely or withheld will affect the decision on an application and may make the applicant ineligible for admission and/or enrollment.
Entry into MGH Institute of Health Professions is only valid for the semester and program of study listed on the acceptance letter. A student may request a deferral of admission if certain criteria are met and only upon approval by the program and/or Director of Admission. Please refer to the Deferral of Admission section for more detailed information. The MGH Institute of Health Professions retains the right to revoke earlier admission decisions on the basis of new information or limited resources.
Students who are admitted but who neither defer nor subsequently enroll are required to submit a new application and go through the entire application process again. Despite previous acceptance, there is no guarantee of acceptance to future start terms/programs of study.
A current or former student who wishes to pursue a different program other than the one originally sought must initiate a formal application for the new program by filing a new application for admission, and may need to submit additional documentation as necessary. An applicant may matriculate in only one degree program at a time.
