Graduation Conditions
Students enrolled in the M.D./M.P.H. program must complete all requirements for both degrees in order to receive either degree. This means that students must complete the M.P.H. degree in order to receive the MD degree, and vice versa. Even if a student has successfully completed all requirements for the M.D. degree and have obtained a residency program, they will not be awarded the M.D. degree until the M.P.H. degree is also awarded. We will provide all students with faculty mentors and advisors to assist in meeting all requirements and obligations for both degrees in a timely manner.
Transfer, Withdrawal, and Leave of Absence
Students considering a transfer, withdrawal, or leave of absence from the MD/MPH program must follow the policies and procedures outlined in the Medical Student Rights and Responsibilities Handbook.
Please refer to the Medical Student Rights and Responsibilities Handbook 2024 - 2025 Miller School of Medicine for the most current policies and procedures related to transfer, withdrawal, and program hiatus.
For additional guidance, students should consult with the Office of Medical Education.
