Pre-Dental Society, Notre Dame
About
The purpose of the Pre-Dental Society is to provide a chance for students potentially interested in dentistry to meet and obtain helpful information regarding dental school application, as well as to gain insight on the nature of life as a dental student or dentist. In order to achieve these goals, the club will partake in the following activities: 1) The club will meet regularly to allow members to get together with their fellow pre-dental students and exchange thoughts and ideas on the Dental School application process. 2) We will coordinate the visits of South Bend-area dentists and orthodontists who will volunteer their time to share their past experiences in applying, their thoughts on life as a dentist, and where they see the future of dentistry. 3) A dental hygiene drive will be conducted to collect and/or to receive donations for dental supplies for the needy in the area. 4) The club will be a resource for students seeking information on dental schools and the application process from the Science Preprofessional office. Meetings may also be a form for talks from Preprofessional advisors. 5) The club will conduct D.A.T. test study sessions to help students prepare for the exam. 6) The club will bring admissions officers from nearby dental schools to allow club members to become familiar with the dental admissions process.
