Additional Admissions Information
A student’s seat in the program is only confirmed once their enrollment deposit has been received. All additional qualified applicants will be placed on a waitlist and contacted in order of acceptance should a seat become available.
For applicants who are waitlisted, we encourage consideration of other academic opportunities at Manhattan University that align with interests in healthcare and science. Programs such as Public Health, Biology, or Kinesiology offer strong foundational pathways and may serve as alternate routes for those considering future application or career options in allied health fields.
