They are a private school----in-state not such a big deal. As with most dschool if you have good grades, DAT, and have experience than you're probably a candidate. No for sure scores, but to be competitive anywhere I'd shoot for DAT=20s, 3.5+gpa, and hours of shadowing or exposure to the dental field.

Hi,
I attended Marquette for a year before going to Med School. My advice to you is to apply early, maintain a good GPA (3.3 or better), DAT of 23 or better, and work on interviewing well. Also do some volunteer work at a local dental office. and if they ask for three letters of recommendation, give them six (mostly academic).

I applied there and interviewed there and they have a very good program and new clinic which is a plus. I would keep your GPA up around 3.5 and a DAT of 19+ The information packet I got from the school stated that there incoming class had averages of AA17 PAT 17 which is not that high but you are an out of state applicant. When in doubt just call the admissions office.
