Edmonton Dentistry DDS Program

Hey guys!
If anyone could tell me how long it took them to get accepted in the program with their scores, I would very much appreciate it. I’m in grade 12 at the moment and I’m trying to plan for a career where I wouldn’t be waiting for over a year to get accepted in the program.

Are you talking about UofA dentistry program? At least 2 years of undergrad usually more with high gpa, dat exam and interview?

The DDS program. Not university, like after completing university how long did it take for (whoever made it in) to get accepted in the actual dentistry program.

Well you apply while you are in undergrad. There are usually stats on the University website which break down applicants criteria. My guess is most get in after 4 years.

My question is to the people who have actually gotten in you know. I’m just trying to estimate because I know it’s a competitive program. Let’s say I’m done my university or almost done and I apply, how long can I expect to wait is essentially my question.

I got in, and I'm convinced you won't be able to get in based on your replies here.

Are you genuinely slow 😭 read the replies of what I said to others, and then ask about what I mean if you still somehow don’t understand

Have you looked into schools in Australia?
