Once you have been accepted

• Applicants accepted to the program will be required to attend our program orientation in July.
• Applicants must return the acceptance form by the deadline stated in the acceptance letter.
• Provide proof of
  • A recent physical examination (the summer before the program begins)
  • A recent TB testing (the summer before the program begins).
  • Receiving the three Hepatitis B immunizations (before the program begins) and a Hepatitis B titer (blood test). Receiving the Hepatitis B vaccination series with the titer blood test is a process that takes 7-8 months to complete.
  • Receiving the Hepatitis B lab titer (anti-HBs blood test), which proves your immunity must be received by October 1 of the current year. The titer results should be Positive (to indicate positive immunity to HBV). If the titer results are Negative, it will be necessary to repeat the vaccination series and titer test. (refer to your healthcare provider for more information.) 
• Applicants who have served in the military must submit military papers in order to receive credit for courses taken.
• Students in the professional dental programs must pass a drug screening test, if requested.

Admission policies

Applicants can be considered an alternate if they:

• Are still taking prerequisite courses in the summer.
• Apply after the May 15 application deadline.

Reapplying: Students who have not been accepted, but who are qualified, may reapply for admission. Students who decline admission two times will no longer be considered.

Repeat Attempts: A student may make two graded attempts at a prerequisite course, with the most recent grade calculated in the prerequisite GPA. The student’s two attempts will include any graded attempt, whether or not eliminated from the student’s GPA by grade replacement.

In addition to the dental technology classes, students must complete the required IU Fort Wayne General Education courses. See the program curriculum for dental technology requirements.
