i did not get a chance to complete internship in home country for some reason, do u guys think tht is going to hurt my chances? n if yes then wht should i do?
shall i go back for 1 yr n complete internship? im really upset plz help[ me
I know one been accepted in USC 3 years before had the same situation but you have to make sure bec regulations changed sometimes,,,good luck
 
i c...so did u do ur housejob/internship then?
 
I am talking about India, may be its diff in ur country. there the degree(BDS) is not granted unless you dnt complete your internship. SO essentially if one has passed the final year but haven't done the internship- he/she has not completed the degree. So, internship is a mandatroy requirment.

to be accepted to advanced standing program, one has to have a "Completed Degree" from outside US, so if u haven't done ur internship, essentially u haven't completed the degree, so even if u have 92 on nbde exams, you are technically not eligible.

Correct me if i am wrong.

If you have your original dental degree certificate its ok.(not provisional certificate).
Bcoz every school asks for the degree certificate when you apply.

I think its imposible to get degree without completing internship

ans without degree any university will not give you admission
