The Dietetics application cycle is annual, starting in late fall/early winter, with a start of the program in Summer I (May) for accepted students.
1) Applicants are required to attend a Zoom Dietetics Application Q and A session before applying. These will be announced and provided each fall semester. Applicants must email dieteticsms_advising@emich.edu to receive a session link. Access to sessions is granted only to those who have requested a link.

The Reference Form must be completed between November 1, 2021, and January 4, 2022. On this form, the applicant provides the contact information for two references.

Pre-admission courses may be left blank if not yet completed.
