Early Acceptance Program in Dentistry

   

The College of Dentistry of the University of Iowa offers the opportunity to apply for early acceptance to its program leading to the degree of Doctor of Dental Surgery (D.D.S.). Students may apply at any time between the end of their first year and the second semester of their junior year at Cornell if they have achieved a grade point average of 3.2 or higher at the time of application. Those accepted must then maintain a grade point average of at least 3.2 up to the time of graduation from Cornell. Applicants must also complete the course requirements for admission to the College of Dentistry and take the Dental Application Test (DAT) before beginning the University's Dentistry program; however, an unsatisfactory performance on the DAT will not prevent the student from entering the program. Program Advisor: Professor David Lyon.

At Cornell the essential minimum preparation consists of the following courses: Biology 141 and 142 (Foundations I and II), 205 (Cell and Molecular Biology); Chemistry 121 and 122 or 161 (Chemical Principles I and II), 225, 326, and 327 (Organic Chemistry I, II, and Laboratory); Mathematics 112 (Functions) or 141 (Calculus I); and either Physics 101, 102, and 114 (Introductory Physics I, II, and Laboratory) or 111, 112, and 114 (General Physics I, II, and Laboratory). Other relevant courses are Biology 312 (Vertebrate Zoology), 313 (Developmental Biology), 315 (Genetics), 324 (Comparative Animal Physiology), 326 (Microbiology), and Religion 361 (Medical Ethics).
