How many students are accepted each year?
The Dental Hygiene Program admits 12 students each summer. The application deadline is January 20 each year, and the highest-ranking 12 candidates will be informed of their conditional acceptance into the Temple College Dental Hygiene Program. Additional candidates will be placed on the alternate list and will be notified of their standing.
The number of students accepted each year vary depending on the number of students who have graduated in the preceding year. Typically, 2-4 students have been admitted per year in the recent past. A total number of 11-12 students are maintained in the program to enable close mentoring and training relationships with faculty advisors.
