All applicants are notified of admissions decisions by mid-December. Applicants may be offered acceptance, a position on a waiting list, or will be declined admission from the program.
On notice of acceptance to the D.D.S. Qualifying Program, applicants are required to deposit the sum of $2500.00 (CDN) to the Registrar before a specified date (normally within 10 days of acceptance). This amount is credited toward tuition fees if the student registers, but is not refundable if he/she withdraws or declines the offer of acceptance.
Acceptance into all programs within the Faculty of Dentistry and the School of Dental Hygiene is normally conditional upon receipt of a completed Immunization/CPR Record
Accepted applicants are provided with an orientation package and registration information during the months prior to the start of classes. Students are encouraged to arrange for suitable living accommodations in Halifax at an early date, as accommodations close to the university are limited and residence facilities are not generally suitable for professional students.
