The program is available for medical students and
those with at least three years of experience working
in health or a public health field. The admission criteria
and student performance standards are the same as those
for students in the Professional Enhancement Program
(PEP) program at the Chicago campus. Students are admitted
to the program every year in the fall semester. For
more information, visit the Rockford

Financial Aid
Limited financial aid is available to qualified
students in the form of traineeships or
research assistantships. Students can apply
for traineeships or research assistantships
after they have been accepted into a degree
program. Traineeships may include a monthly
stipend and/or payment of in-state tuition
and fees. Research assistantships provide
students with opportunities to participate
in faculty research projects and include
a wage and, in most cases, a tuition waiver.
Students may contact the university's Office
of Student Financial Aid, the SPH
Office of Student Affairs, or the HPA Administrative Office at 312-996-7816

(PHI) program must apply through the PHI
website.
