Applying for Tulsa Community College's dental hygiene program?

I'm interested in Tulsa Community College's dental hygiene program and hope to apply. Does anyone know what the application process is like or the specific requirements I should prepare for? Also, is there a separate deadline?

Although the details may change from year to year, I can give you a general overview of the application process for the dental hygiene program at Tulsa Community College (TCC).

First, you will need to apply for general admission to TCC if you aren't already a student there. This involves completing the TCC online application form. Try to have your high school and any previous college transcripts handy, as you may need to upload them.

Next, you would apply to the dental hygiene program specifically. Admission to the program is competitive, meaning that not everyone who applies gets in. Usually, applicants are evaluated based on their GPA, the specific courses they have taken, and possibly an interview.

Some specific prerequisites usually exist for the program, like passing grades in certain high school or college science courses (chemistry and biology, for example). It's also common for these programs to require students to have completed a specific number of observation hours under a licensed dental hygienist, so keep that in mind.

Regarding deadlines, you'll find that TCC does have a unique application deadline for the dental hygiene program. It can be different every year and is separate from the general TCC application. Therefore, it's important to check TCC's website or speak to an admissions counselor at the college to get the most accurate information.

Always make sure to keep track of all the requirements and double-check your application materials before submitting them to ensure that all your hard work pays off.

Hope this information helps. Good luck with your application!
