We are excited to announce that rolling admissions for the MS in Human Nutrition program at Institute of Human Nutrition (IHN), part of Columbia University Irving Medical Center, will open on December 1, 2025, for the Fall 2026 cohort.
What this means for prospective students
- Starting December 1, 2025, we will begin reviewing applications for the Fall 2026 MS in Human Nutrition program.

- Allows for better planning — from housing to course registration, and orientation scheduling.
