    Pre-Dentistry

    There is no distinct pre-dentistry degree. ‘Pre-dentistry’ is merely a term that students planning to go to dental school use to describe their undergraduate studies. In fact, aspiring dentists enter dental school having earned many different bachelor’s degrees.

    A science program such as biology or chemistry is certainly a common choice, but it is not mandatory. In other words, a pre-dentistry student can be a psychology major, a statistics major, or a Spanish major. The key for students is to incorporate into their studies the classes needed to apply to dental school.
