Hi there,

I'm an international student but I have been attending U.S colleges for three years. I am applying to DDS/DMD this cycle and just took DAT not so long ago.
Do I have to go through a different application process or just through AADSAS? I tried to find some info but they only have international dentist program, which is not for me apparently.
Some schools do require me to submit TOEFL score but it's really general and arbitrary, other don't even mention about it, which worries me a bit.

Thank you.

Nope, you apply through AADSAS like everyone does.

For the TOEFL requirement, if you'll be graduating from a US institution I think you can get it waived even if the schools say it's a "requirement". Give the admissions office a call and ask, because some schools might be lenient, some schools might be more strict with the TOEFL requirement.

Thank you, definitely give all of them a call, since most of them (except those explicitly state that they require TOEFL for international students who are currently in US) don't even mention about that.
