Hi Reetika,

First you need to get your F1 visa, green card to be a permanent resident. You need to take the NBDE Part I and score very well (85% +) at least. Bring all your transcripts, diploma, letters of recommendation to the US. Apply to schools which have an advanced standing program (PENN, NOVA, Tufts, NYU, USC, etc).

Then PRAY you get in.

All programs are two years, except NYU which is three. It would be advantageous to get into a two year program.

Good luck,

DesiDentist

(I'm not an advanced standing student, but my cousin is one at NYU).

 

hi Reetika

What Desi ..informed is more than enough to get to this land...
Just remeber take it a step at a time...okay

good luck

 

Requirements to get into dental school
Here is some info that you might find useful....

Here is a summary of what you need to do in order to go to a school in the US for DDS (2-3yr courses)
1. Take National Dental Board (NDB) exam Part I - This is based on first 2 years of BDS / Dental Anatomy, 4 subjects 6 Hrs. Details on www.ada.org.
Try to get as good a score as you can (above 90 is preferred) as many schools consider students with high score...
2. Take TOEFL
3. Based on the score in NDB-1 exam, apply to dental schools.

The following are some of the schools that offer a 2-3 yr course
2yr programs:
Boston University
Tufts University (require Part 2 also and a high score in part 1 above 89)
University of Loma Linda, CA
University of Pennsylvania
University of Pacific
University of Southern California
University of Florida
Case Western Reserve

2.5yrs
Columbia University

2-3yrs
NYU

Contact the universities for more information on dead lines, admission procedures, exam requirements etc..
Many schools have interviews which are important. The interviews are non-technical. They like to see you do something useful (not necessarily dental work) rather than sit at home and study for the exams. Do Voluntary work as a dental assistant or something...
4. You can write NDBEPart II before you take admission to schools. Although not necessary, it sometimes improves chances of getting admission.
5. Need to study for 2-3 years. Expenses for each year are any where from $70 K-100k with no/little financial assistance.
6. You can take student loan with an interest rate.
7. For practicing in California only, you can take some exams instead of going to school, that is only till the end of 2003!!
This information is by no means complete and it is meant to be a start for those who have no clue.
All of us who are here trying to give the national boards have all done our 5 years of dental school in various countriesand have also worked for more than a couple of years . So you are not alone.Many of us here., who have also done our masters from other countries , facing these extensive exams.!!
good luck
