Dental Assisting School Application Process

Anyone with a high school diploma or GED equivalent and who is interested in becoming a dental assistant is welcome to apply by submitting a program application. Each class will have a maximum of 15 students, all of whom are chosen through an in-depth selection process. Prospective applicants will be invited to attend a personal interview. This interview will be used to cover the basics of the course, position, and general industry; gauge applicant interest and fit; and address any financial aid concerns or obstacles. Applicants can expect to receive notification on the Academy’s final decision within one to two weeks.

If accepted, students will proceed with program enrollment and attend an initial orientation. They will receive a background check and drug screening as well as the permit necessary to practice dental assisting in Oklahoma.

  • The motor ability necessary to ambulate independently in class, lab, and clinical rotations
