I took some or all of the Phase I Preprofessional Curriculum many years ago, how recently do the courses need to have been taken to be eligible to apply to the Phase II Professional Curriculum?
At minimum, Principles of Nutrition and the basic science courses such as General Biology with lab, Anatomy & Physiology I & II with labs, and Microbiology II with lab must have been completed within 5-7 years at the time of application. The non-science courses can be transferred even if they are of greater than seven year vintage. Students admitted having Nutrition and science courses of 5-7 year vintage are highly encouraged to self-conduct considerable review of their previous Nutrition and basic science coursework in the summer prior to beginning the Entry-level Program. Students must be aware that recall of Nutrition and the basic sciences is critical given the nature of the science-based Oral Biology curriculum and clinical Dental Hygiene coursework in the Phase II Professional Curriculum.
