Question:
What are my chances of getting into a Dental Hygiene Program with having less than a 4.0 GPA?
I work full-time and need to until I can get into a program. I get good grades, but not straight A's. My biggest fear is that I won't get in. Any thoughts....
Answers:
I am not sure that you need a perfect GPA but I can give you a couple of recommendations. Perhaps you could make an appointment with the dental hygiene program director to discuss any concerns you might have. If they remember your face and you make a good impression when your application gets reviewed it could be favorable. Also, if you do get great grades or have a good relationship with another teacher it might be good to ask them for a nice letter of recommendation to forward to the director. Also, consider being a patient at the program's dental hygiene clinic to check it out and make yourself visible. I hope that helps! I love hygiene and have been at it for 15 years
