I know that UNE being a recently found dental school doesn't have "full accreditation" yet. It says on their site that they have received "initial accreditation".
More info here: http://www.une.edu/dentalmedicine/upload/AccreditationStatement082012.pdf
However, I was wondering for UNE, but also for other new schools as well, how risky is it applying to dental schools without full accreditation? Have there been several cases of schools never receiving full accreditation so current students never received a degree? I wouldn't want to make a huge financial investment just to know that I may be wasting my time and money.
Also, I'm not familiar with the accreditation aspect of dental schools, so if I said something wrong, please feel free to correct me.
