PRE-DENTAL

Hiram College's rich liberal arts curriculum ensures its future dentists will be wholly educated. In addition to having the science knowledge needed to excel in dental school and pass entry examinations, they will be compassionate caregivers, thanks to our excellence in the medical humanities.

PARTNERSHIP WITH CASE WESTERN RESERVE UNIVERSITY Future dentists can earn direct-admittance into dental school at Case Western Reserve University's School of Dental Medicine, after completing three years of undergraduate work at Hiram College.

The seven-year Hiram B.A. to CWRU D.M.D. Program is a new, accelerated option for high-achieving high school students. On top of Hiram College admission guidelines, applicants to the B.A. to D.M.D. program should carry the following credentials:

? Test scores: ACT ? 29; SAT ? 1300 ? GPA: 3.5 or higher (un-weighted) ? Preferred: Advanced Placement (AP) or International Baccalaureate (IB)

course credit (the Office of Admission will consider the availability of such coursework at applicant's high school)

Pre-dental students who choose direct-admittance will major in either biomedical humanities or biology at Hiram and must meet academic requirements in order to advance into CWRU's School of Dental Medicine after the third year of undergraduate coursework. After the first year of successful study at CWRU, students will receive a B.A. from Hiram.

CASE WESTERN RESERVE UNIVERSITY: EXCELLENCE IN CLINICAL TRAINING Established in 1892, the CWRU School of Dental Medicine has a long-established legacy of excellence in clinical training in addressing the health needs of individual patients and the community.
