About the Advanced Standing Track
Our 29-month program is designed for international dental school graduates who wish to practice in the United States. The program incorporates the latest in dental practice, equipment, and technology; principles in public health, health policy, and business; and the opportunity to provide care to a wide variety of patients.
Once accepted, you will receive a customized curricular plan for your first semester that is based on your individual needs and takes into account previous coursework, for which advanced standing credit may be awarded. After successfully completing your first preparatory semester (spring), you will integrate into the rising third-year (D3) cohort for the summer term, during which you will begin patient care in the Oral Health Center.
Please visit Graduate and Professional Student Financial Services for information about tuition and fees.
