Yes, shoes are usually recommended.

here at Nova, every health program is required to wear scrubs of a different color for each specific program. As dental students, each year is a different color set of scrubs to mark you "rank" so to speak, among the dental community 🙂 Sandals/jeans are never allowed 🙁

At UOP for guys, we always have to wear collared shirts(button down or polo usually) tucked into either khakis or slacks and decent shoes, so no sneakers or anything open-toed. Ties are optional, but a lot of people wear them anyway. 1st years are allowed to dress down a bit on anatomy lab days. During finals, it's pretty much free dress. You could show up in your underwear if you like.

We have something similar at UMKC, although we also have the option to wear scrubs (as long as the pants and top match in color). Since we don't have an actual cadaver lab, we don't really have the option to dress down.

So even for normal lectures you wear shirt/slacks?


Our university has been a bit lapse with that, students even show up in slippers/short pants for some lectures, which I personally find horrible.

There is going to be a meeting on it soon, so I'm just checking 🙂

The reason why our dress code is so strict is that our administration says that the majority of the people who come to the school are patients, and they have no clue if the first-year that they pass in the restroom is going to be their student doctor. The patients will likely feel more at ease if the students all look professional, regardless of if they are first years in lecture or if they are fourth years on the clinic floor.

@ UMDNJ - NJDS it's scrubs. Each class year has a different color. We're also required to wear all ****e sneakers. Lab or no lab, lecture, whatever. Scrubs with the school logo on the pocket.

Shirts and ties everyday, no exceptions here at Creighton

Once you enter clinic at Penn, it is either a scrubs or shirt and tie. The first two years we can wear whatever we want. More than a few people can be seen in pajamas on Friday mornings after a long night out on the town.

Down here at UF, for the first years its scrubs unless you want to get dressed up. For guys that would be a collared shirt w/ khahkis, and Im guessing something equivalent for the ladies.

At BU it's whatever you want in lectures/simulation lab (with no open shoes preferred in the sim lab--i've been called out a couple times for my flipflops 🙄 ). Scrubs or shirt/tie in the clinic.
