Program Overview

What North Central College says about their program:
"Competition for admission to dental schools is intense. Your liberal arts education at North Central College can give you a competitive edge. By earning a bachelor's degree in one of our majors, such as biology or biochemistry, and completing specific prerequisite coursework, you will develop a solid foundation for applying to dental school. Your professors will get to know you in North Central’s smaller classes, and when you need a letter of recommendation your teachers will know just what to say about you."
