The Pre-Professional Advising Office is here to support UGA students and alumni interested in applying to dental school. The Pre-Dental Advisor can provide guidance at any stage of your pre-dental journey:
- Exploring your interest in becoming a dentist
- Planning to apply to dental school
- Actively in the process of applying to dental school
- Determining which dental school to attend
The Pre-Dental Advisor meets with you one-on-one to discuss your specific situation. The Pre-Professional Advising Office has developed programming to assist you as well. These events occur throughout the fall and spring semesters each school. Pre-Dental Advising is available year-round.
We recommend that any interested undergraduate student connects with our office as early as possible. Freshmen are encouraged to meet with the Pre-Dental Advisor in the spring semester of their first year.
