So I enrolled in the NYU "Oral Biology" Masters. First off, it is not an accredited program. Your degree will say "Biology" nowhere will it say "oral biology." Their website is purposely deceptive.
Second, there are hardly any relevant courses to choose from. There is a course called Biocore that every Biology master's student has to take and the course was such a debacle that they are trying to restructure the whole course. To give you an idea of how bad it was- a different prof was supposed to teach every week, approx 1/3 of the time the teachers supposed to be teaching didn't even show up! They sent substitutes! The substitutes were clueless, but ironically, the assigned teachers who showed up the other 2/3 of the time were no better! Many of them admitted that they had no idea what they were supposed to be lecturing about.
Third, nobody knows anything about this "program" -the administration seems to make up requirements and rules as they go along. I get different answers every time I ask about requirements.
Last and most importantly, the "program" claims that they have a 100% acceptance into dental school. This could not be further from the truth! Although a few have been accepted to dental schools (not NYU btw), a lot of people have NOT!
Hope this saves you the time, $$, and trouble that I went through. My advice- choose a Master's program that is devoted to its students, study for your DAT, and cross your fingers. Good Luck!
