Application and Selection Procedure

Applications for 2025 intake are now open!

If you plan to apply, we recommend booking your language proficiency test as soon as possible, as test centres may have limited availability as the deadline approaches. Meeting the language requirements (test type, date, and results) is a mandatory step for eligibility, and your application cannot be reviewed without it.

We highly encourage you to visit our website for detailed information on the programme, application process, career opportunities, testimonials, funding options, and living costs.

Evaluation criteria

The Europubhealth+ selection committee uses the following criteria to assess eligible applications:

    • Reasons for choosing the Europubhealth+ Master: added-value for the student to graduate from this particular programme and motivation for the second year specialisation in line with previous training and career prospects.
    • Educational credentials: Marks, classification, grades and distinctions obtained in previous trainings.
    • Professional experience: work experience in the field of public health, health care or social work (including volunteer work, placements, summer jobs…)
    • International projects or prospects
    • Personal skills (cultural adaptability, autonomy, initiative, suitability for teamwork)

The Europubhealth+ Selection Committee is composed of representatives of the 8 partner universities of the consortium.
All applications are carefully studied according to the Europubhealth+ eligibility criteria (e.g. language level, previous degree…). Eligible applications are then marked and ranked in order of merit by the Selection Committee according to the Europubhealth+ evaluation criteria. All candidates who obtain the minimum threshold score set by the Selection Committee are selected to join the course. Applications are assessed by the Selection Committee after each one of the above-mentioned deadlines.

Interview: The best-ranked candidates for the first round of selection (January deadline), will be invited for an interview as the final step of selection for the Erasmus Mundus scholarships. This interview will take place on 17th February 2025. The applicants selected for the interview will be informed one week before the interview and the exact time slots will be communicated to the short list of interviewees 4 days before the interview. The slots can be from 8.00am to 8.00pm CET. No change of date or timeslot will be possible.

What is the format of the interview? It will be a 15-minute online interview with Europubhealth+ professors. You may be asked questions to clarify elements of your application, your qualifications, motivation and added-value to the programme.

Selection results are announced within 9 weeks after each application deadline.

Selected students are informed individually by email; the list of non-selected applicants (anonymized – referring to applicants’ ID only) is published on the Home page of the Application platform.

Appeal procedure:

In case of non-selection on the ground of non-eligiblity , if an applicant believes that there has been an error in the decision-making process, he or she may appeal the decision by writing a letter to the Europubhealth+ Coordinator. Well-founded requests need to be sent by email to: europubhealth[at]ehesp.fr, entitled: “APPEAL: Last and first name and application number” within 15 days after the publication of selection results. The reasons for the appeal must be clearly stated in the letter. The admission decision is reached after a careful, objective eval­uation of each application by both faculty and administrative staff. The appeal procedure is designed to protect applicants from being mistreated. Only justified requests will be considered. Please note that this procedure is only for applicants who have been considered as NON-ELIGIBLE : it is not a second chance at admission for applicants who were eligible but did not get selected.
