Dental School Admission Process

Follow the key stages of the U.S. dental school application process - from ADEA AADSAS and supplemental requirements to interviews and admission decisions.
Submit Your Primary Dental School Application
Most U.S. dental schools use ADEA AADSAS as their centralized application service. Texas residents applying to Texas dental schools use TMDSAS. Application dates vary by cycle; ADEA AADSAS opened in May and submissions begins by June.
Complete School-Specific Requirements
Dental schools may have additional school-specific requirements beyond the centralized application. Review each school's admissions requirements carefully and complete any supplemental materials, fees, or other requested information by the required deadlines.
Track Your Application and Verification Status
ADEA AADSAS collects, verifies, processes, and delivers application information to participating dental schools. Monitor your application regularly and respond promptly if additional information or documentation is required.
Prepare for Dental School Interviews
Applicants selected by dental schools may receive interview invitations. Research each program, understand its interview format, and prepare to discuss your motivation for dentistry, experiences, goals, and fit with the school.
Receive Admission Decisions
Each dental school makes its own admissions decisions. If you receive an offer, follow the school's instructions and deadlines for responding and completing enrolment requirements.

What is AscentAbility?

AscentAbility is an application management workspace built for dental school applicants. It helps you organize your ADEA AADSAS preparation, supplemental applications, school-specific prompts, essays, deadlines, documents, and application progress through Dashboard, Workspace, Vault, and LaunchPad.

AscentAbility is designed for pre-dental students applying through ADEA AADSAS, including reapplicants, gap-year applicants, international applicants applying to U.S. dental schools, and advisors supporting multiple applicants.

Unlike a standard document editor such as Google Docs, AscentAbility combines essay organization, school-specific prompts, deadline tracking, application management, and version history in a single workspace.
