Marquette Post-Bacc (BMPD) 2023/2024

[Crome]

Starting a thread because I couldn't find a recent one. I'm looking at doing Marquette's post-bacc. I haven't applied yet but I was hoping to get some feedback from current/former students. How successful is the matriculation of the class? How difficult is the course load? What's the program retention rate? Any and all feedback on this program would be helpful.

Thanks!

So I ended up not going through with this program but thought I would post a little something for people in the future.

Application: I just sent in my AADSAS application since I applied this cycle but if you don't have an AADSAS application, they require separate application, 3 letters of recommendation, DAT and transcripts.

Interview: I got the invite for the interview shortly after applying (2 weeks?). And it was similar to some of my dental school interviews (Couple of the questions were the same). They just want to get to know you and see if you're a good fit for the program

Acceptance: I heard back within two weeks after my interview.

Overall, I got a really positive feel from this program! The director told me around 85% of their students get into dental school (not necessarily Marquette). It's a small class so students get integrated with each other pretty readily.

Hope this helps! DM me if there are other questions

I was a part of the 2020 cohort, and loved it!! Im an incoming D2 now (not at Marquette), but found the program did a great job in preparing me for D1 didactics
