Do grades matter once accepted??

Contact them, some schools have a minimum GPA/letter grade requirement for the remainder of your classes.
Side note: If you're considering going OMFS, 6-year programs look at your undergrad GPA.

Different schools, different requirements. Tufts just requires at least a C.
Every school is different. Some schools say a B (UOP), some said C (Minnesota), and some said grades consistent with what you submitted to them. Every school is different so you should call them.
some say contingent on successful completion = passing = D and above
Depends on the school. I dropped 3 courses (non-prereqs) since I applied in June and changed my spring 2014 coursework a little and the dean said it was OK.
Since when was D passing?

Generally, that's true for undergrads. Dental schools, however, will not take anything below a C. C- is considered failing.
oh fk please tell me this doesn't apply to every dental school.....
when i talked to one of the admissions officers at one of the dental schools i interviewd at, she told me they're okay if we get below C in a NON pre requisite class. but prereqs need to be C or above. and if you happen to get below C, we can retake over summer or something. so im not sure what to think now...
It applies to every dental school. Below a C = C- and below.
no as in like...not IN dental school,but like the admissions process as an undergrad. you know what i mean?
the admissions officer that i talked to at the school.....was she lying to me? she said if it\s not a prereq, i can get below C as long as its an (undergrad) pass.......
What a dilemma
Which school did you call? I called 15 schools when I was applying and they all told me the same thing.
michigan. i didnt call. i talked to them in person

did you call Pittsburgh and Minnesota too by chance? this would be realaly helpful info
Out of those schools you mentioned I only called Pittsburgh. No, i'm a predent but I got accepted to Dschool so i'll be starting in the fall.
Minnesota says C and above on their acceptance letter
what did Pitt say? I'm really really curious. THANK YOU
I already told you, all the schools I called told me the same thing.
