If I have already completed my degree and am taking some extra classes will the grades in those classes be requested by specialty programs that I may be applying to after dental school? Also, do dental schools request transcripts after acceptances and before matriculation?

yes. they run a final audit.

They sure do. Most post-grad programs want all ur transcripts from all your undergrad institutions. In OMFS (especially the MD-granting) they care more about your undergrad than dental (so they can compare u to their incoming med students).

Bottom line, everything you did or will do can come back to help or haunt you.

When I was applying to speciality programs after dental school, some of the interviews even asked about my B's and C's in undergrad. :scared:
