The Ideal Dental School Application Timeline

Applying to dental school requires careful planning, but many applicants aren’t sure when each piece of the process should actually happen. This session is for prospective dental students who want a clear, realistic timeline for building and submitting a competitive application. You’ll learn when to prepare for the DAT, how to sequence shadowing and extracurriculars, and how to plan essays, recommendations, and submissions so nothing important gets rushed. Join live to ask questions about your own timeline and get guidance on how to stay on track throughout the cycle. The speaker brings admissions experience from Harvard School of Dental Medicine and regularly advises applicants on how to organize their preparation effectively. They’ll share the kinds of planning frameworks and application insights typically discussed in 1:1 advising conversations.
