What is a typical day like at the dental hygiene program?
Hours each day may vary, but generally the courses run from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm. The core curriculum focuses on a “hands-on” approach to dental hygiene education. During your senior year, you will be assigned to overnight extramural rotations sites such as Lynchburg, the Northern Neck, and Boydton. The first semester begins on the last Monday in July or the first Monday in August, depending on the academic calendar for that year. All semesters are conducted on a strict full time schedule. You may view the dental hygiene class schedules online. All students are automatically registered for their courses by the Director of the Division of Dental Hygiene. There are no night classes, no summer courses and no on-line courses available for this program.
