Clinical Program
(32 credits)
Successful completion of 12-month clinical program at an affiliated hospital
(St. Margaret Mercy Healthcare Centers, North Campus, Hammond, IN; OSF Saint
Francis Medical Center, Peoria, IL; ParkviewHospital, Inc., Ft. Wayne, IN; or Hines VA
Hospital, Hines, IL).
Note: Students must register for “Candidate Only” at Purdue Calumet at the beginning of the semester in
which they expect to complete the B.S.
Predentistry Program
(90 credits)
In order to enter dental school the student must fulfill appropriate prerequisite course requirements and
have completed at least 90 semester hours. The vast majority of students who are accepted todental
school do have a Bachelor’s degree. Purdue University Calumet communicates with Indiana University
School of Dentistry to stay updated on this school’s admission requirements. However, it is up tothe
individual student to make sure that his/her programsatisfies the admission requirements for any dental
school that he/she applies to. After completing the courses and 90 credit hours of undergraduate work,
the student can apply to dental school. Currently, applications to IUPUI Dental School must be sent by
Jan. 1st of the year the applicant plans to attend (www.iusd.iupui.edu). Deadline dates change from
year to year. For more information on dental schools and the application process, go to: www.ada.org. To
apply, students must take the Dental Admission Test (DAT). Successful performance on the DAT requires
completion of at least one year of college education, which should include courses in biology, and general
and organic chemistry. Physics and advanced level biology are not required prior to taking the DAT. Most
applicants complete two or more years of college prior to taking the examination.
Suggested Plan of Study
Pre-dentistry majors should take the same basic courses as those outlined
for biology majors, with appropriate changes to complete all dental school
prerequisites.
