Admission to dental school is highly competitive. Schools look at applicants’ interviews and recommendations, scores earned on the Dental Admissions Test (DAT), and grade point averages.
To be admitted to a dental school, the minimum of a bachelor’s degree is usually required. There are a few exceptions where only the completion of two years of pre-dental education is necessary. Many applicants to dental schools major in a science-based field such as chemistry or biology; however, others choose to major in different subjects of study such as linguistics or English. These students must still take a number of science based classes in order to apply to dental school. A few applicants are admitted to dental school after only completing a few years of their degree and finish their bachelor’s degree at dental school.
