Pre-Dental Pathway
DR. GRANT HOKIT, PRE-DENTAL ADVISOR
The Pre-Dental Pathway at Carroll College prepares students to apply to graduate programs in dentistry. Careers in the dental field are in high and constant demand, and the Pre-Dental Pathway provides students a well-rounded combination of courses to better prepare them for dental school.

Please note that completion of the Pre-Dental Pathway does not guarantee that all graduate/professional admission prerequisites have been met, nor does it assure admission into a dentistry degree program. Carroll students pursuing this pathway need to work closely with the appropriate pre-professional advisor, as well as the admission office(s) of all prospective graduate/professional programs.
