AMAZING GPA, average DAT, great ECs. Your chances look great.
 
You go to one of those lucky schools that gives out A+ grades! :D

You have great chances... but I think you already knew that.

Thanks everyone, I'm sorry if my post seemed unnecessary but I just really needed honest advice. I asked because I'm a Canadian applicant (will be applying for a student visa if accepted) AND I won't have a bachelors degree by matriculation!

My goal since day one of university was to go to an american dental school. I just wanted to see if there was a chance considering my visa status

If you get visa, good, but no bachelors might be a problem, make a list of states or schools you want to go to and read carefully their requirements for entry and/or call the school if not clear.

I know NYU requires bachelor!



Good numerical scores.
 
what a braggart!

Isn't the requirement to have a bachelor's degree prior to matriculation? Not just for consideration? In which case, the OP is fine I believe because by the time he/she matriculates (assuming he/she was accepted), it will be the end of the fourth year.

I didn't apply to any dental schools requiring a bachelor's degree prior to matriculation.

For NYU, I know for sure they require matriculants to have a bachelor's degree prior to the first day of dental school.
