What Elite Applicants Are Saying

Great program! As a future dentist I got to experience some of the hand skills needed for this career and also learned some basic terminology. It really helped me know that this is the career for me before I start school.

Very well-rounded overview of everything needed to get into dental school, with lots of valuable time with faculty and professionals.

I loved the program! It gave me a lot of insight into my technical abilities and a way of assessing my ability to perform technically before I go to dental school!

10/10 Would recommend to any student/person who is interested in dentistry! I learned its a whole different set of hand skills required to be an dentist than it is to be an assistant!
