For those interested, I just wanted to let you know that both NOVA and UCSF have updated their dental websites just this past week. So now they have available the most recent fees, requirements, etc. for advanced placement.

About Detroit Mercy, does someone has any info about it? 'cause they don't have much on its website, and they won't repply my emails asking for info. Does someone has any info about MERCY?
Thanks.

[Meggs]

Is TSE test of spoke english?
isn't it part of the toefl?

 

[SiMpLy IrReSiStAbLe]

TSE is test for spoken english. but it is not a part of toefl as yet. they are planning to include that as a part of toefl, i think from 2005 or so.

I just got this from Loma Linda, it turns out they haven't updated their websites. Great, one less. 🙄

"The deadline for Admission 2004 is September 15, 2003. The November date is incorrect. New application packets will be available after January 2004, for Admission 2005. "

Just found this on the school website. I thought they weren't taking any. If you are from Texas you may have hope. 🙂

Both transfer applicants and advance standing applicants will be considered for admissions only if space is available in the appropriate class. Legal residents of the State of Texas will be given preference.
