News from the DSC
Every year the Dental Schools Council collates the entry requirements for dentistry, dental hygiene and dental therapy courses at UK and Irish Dental Schools. This information comes directly from the source and is part of our commitments to increase transparency in applications and improve widening participation.
For applicants thinking of applying to dentistry, the Dental Schools Council has produced a booklet allowing easy comparisons to be made between dental school entry requirements. This is the only resource that collates entry requirements directly from admissions staff in UK dental schools.
Collating and publishing this information forms part of the dental schools’ work to widen participation in dentistry and ensure that access to information about the admissions process is clear and easy to understand. The booklet highlights the diverse routes into dentistry, as well as the widening participation initiatives offered by dental schools.
