how to apply for this program?
 
Depends on ur priority, if ur desire is to get DDS degree then advance standing otherwise if u want to be able to practice in few states, AEGD is not a bad option

But, after 5 years of practicing dentistry in a particular state, one should be able to practice, by endorsement, in other states too, right?
Also, I want to clear some doubts: the AEGD for foreign trained dentists is tuition-based,but after finishing it does one have to do a further residency in order to get licensed in NYS?

Yes u need to done 1 more year of residency
 
Yes u need to done 1 more year of residency
Ok,thanks for clearing the doubt.
What about practicing for 5 years in a particular state then move on? Are you eligible to practice in other states, without a DDS/DMD, only by endorsement?
Also I think one of the biggest factors in choosing a AEGD over an Advanced Standing program, is tuition fees, which are much less than the latter one....

Yes. I’m sure u can practice in NY with 5 yrs of experience from any other state. If u have DDS/ DMD it is 2 yrs. So no need of residency in both these cases.

Thanks for answering...honestly what would be the cons of doing an AEGD over an IDP of 2 year-long? I see that many international dentists still want to go for the DMD/DDS route, why? Isn't AEGD less expensive?

Because it is extremely difficult to get into AEGD if u r not a recent graduate and especially for Indians it is very difficult bcz of some country quota or so. Not completely sure about the race though.

Hello everyone, has anybody heard back from EIOH?
My interview was in October 31 2017.
Anybody knows if they will let you know if accepted or not?
 
hey everyone! i have a question regarding AEGD. i recently moved to the states. i passed NBDE part 1 and 2 with toefl : 100 and GPA 3.00 from turkey. the thing is i don't know if i should apply for AEGD or advanced standing. i don't know how high my chances are. i'm a little worried for advanced standing because of my GPA. and for AEGD i don't know what will happen after i finish the course and the requirements to licensure. any ideas?
 
No news yet about decision making for AEGD at EIOH?
Anyone??
My interview was in October 17. I don't have any news from Eastman. I wish you Happy Holidays and best of luck! Please, if anyone received any news kindly share it here. This waiting period is so difficult for all of us.
