Application Process and Deadlines
The School of Dentistry is a participant in the Associated American Dental Schools Application Service
(AADSAS). Applications can be accessed at the ADEA website at www.adea.org Precise instructions are given on the
website to guide applicants through the application process. From the opening
screen, scroll down and click on Associated American Dental Schools Application
Service (AADSAS). The deadline for submission of the completed AADSAS
application is November 1st. This deadline is thoroughly discussed in the AADSAS
application instructions and thus should be reviewed by the applicant. Remember
to check the requirements for each dental school you are applying to, these vary
from school to school. Even though the application deadline is November 1st
it is to your advantage to submit application early because the committee begins
admitting the class on December 1st.
