How to Apply

Thank you for your interest in the College of Health and Human Services. We offer outstanding programs for current and future health professionals, and we're looking forward to hearing from you.

You may apply to this degree program through the Governors State University Application pages of this website.

One important point to remember is that Governors State University is an "upper-division" university. That means our undergraduate students enter their studies in the College of Health and Human Services at the "Junior" level. As a result, all of our undergraduate students are transfer students and must meet the university’s undergraduate admission requirements.
