I am a non traditional applicant.I am a first generation college student. I am 35 years old now with a BS in microbiology from UC Riverside .
I came to this country when I was 23 and I started from taking ESL classes. Long story short :
My College GPA 3.33
My UCR GPA 2.66
My college GPA after BS , 4.0
My overal GPA is 3.12 . I am a RDA and I have bewn working full time as a dental assistant for two years. I volunteered as a dental assistant at UCLA and Riverside church for 120 hours. I have been working during my school in retail and as a care giver , all my school year I was working at least 30 hours a weeks . Also , I worked as a microbiologist after graduation. I got into dental hygiene school, but my dentist employer tells me to try for dental school and not to go to dental hygiene. I am interested in Western and Arizona dental school. Do I have a chance to try ?!
