Not likely...
1) CA is in debt, UC does not have the $
2) OC/Irvine is saturated with dentists

yea...I agree~! I tried to google it and didn't find any thing related even...logically impossible to open a d-school I guess...
 
UC Irvine was originally built with the plan of having a dental school in conjunction with it's medical school, but when the time came, funding was short and it the plan for the dental school was scrapped. Maybe your friend misheard this, and thought it was a future plan. As much as I'd like an Anteater Dental, I don't see it happening with the massive cuts that the UC Regents are being given this coming year.

does cali need more dentists?
 
I go to UCI and haven't heard anything yet. They were supposed to build one a while ago but it never happened like one of the other posters on here said.
 
omg i wish they would open a dental school!! I go to Irvine right now and it would be so awesome but I don't think it will happen for a long long time : ( unless someone really rich plans to donate a whole lot of money to open it.
