Military Admissions
We’re honored that veterans, active-duty servicemembers, members of the National Guard and Reserves, and military dependents trust us to guide them through their next career mission.
We understand the unique needs of students associated with our military, and we aim to provide a military-friendly, quality education to those who serve our country.
We are a proud participant in the Yellow Ribbon Program and accept students who wish to use benefits from the Post 9/11 GI Bill and Montgomery GI Bill. Active-duty military servicemembers may also opt to use Federal Tuition Assistance (TA) programs to fund their education. For more information, visit our Office for Military and Veteran Students website.
Duquesne University offers a number of support services for military members and veterans.
- Student Veterans of America (SVA)
- Military Services Clinic

Transfer Students
Duquesne University strives to provide quality education for all of our students, which is why the university accepts more than 300 transfer students a year. To find out if you’re eligible to transfer previously earned college credits into one of our programs, contact an enrollment advisor.
International Admissions
A key benefit of our online health administration programs is that you’re able to complete your coursework from wherever you are in the world — it’s not limited to students in the United States. In fact, each year Duquesne University welcomes students from more than 80 countries. That means that not only will your coursework be convenient, it will also be culturally enriched.
You can apply to the John G. Rangos, Sr. School of Health Sciences at Duquesne University School by submitting an online application and your post-secondary education transcripts. All bachelor’s degrees must be from an institution of higher learning and recognized as an acceptable equivalent to a U.S. college or university.
