When offered an acceptance to dental school, does the school also tell you which pre-reqs still need to be completed? I have taken some pre-req courses at a CC so I was wondering whether the schools will tell you if they will accept them or not. So far the schools that I have interviews with have not mentioned anything about my pre-reqs and the ones I have yet completed.

Thanks for your help.
 
some schools don't accept cc credits at all, some schoools don't accept cc prereqs.
You need to check with each school.
I know there is a nice chart made by doc toothache that you can look at

If you are given conditional acceptance, then you need to complete all the prereqs prior to enrolling, otherwise, your acceptance will be voided.

If you are accepted, check with your admissions. No harm in double checking.
 
Thanks for the reply.
Would the schools at least tell you, though, anyway?? For example, when they write you an acceptance letter, would they also include a list stating what you still need to take?? Just curious to see whether schools will actually give you a confirmation saying that you have completed them all or not.

Whether or not they do, it is your responsibility to complete pre-requisites. If they do then cool, if they don't then you can simply ask for an academic audit.

Thank you!
I didn't know you could ask for an academic audit. Would it be possible to ask for one now?
