I've been admitted into dental school already but may have a semester on the lower end of the GPA scale (3.4-3.6). Will I be okay? How do dental schools react to admitted students having a slight drop below their cumulative GPA? Thanks

Every dental school is different in what they require you to maintain before matriculation. I'm pretty sure these details are provided in the acceptance email or on their website. If not, you should call and ask what it is.

Ive heard of some schools saying they want you to maintain your GPA but i have never heard of someone having an offer rescinded because their GPA dropped a little. Hell i know of people who got straight Cs after their acceptance and there was no issue.
