Learning Focus: Admissions, Financial Aid and Student Services

Have you wondered what the dental profession will look like in 2030? The reality is that the students we admit to our dental education programs today will be the practitioners for our collective tomorrow. Is your admissions process up for the challenge? It is critical that we assess our admissions practices to determine if they meet the demands of our profession, the expectations of our changing student demographic and needs of our respective institutions. Participants will learn how to implement best practices in holistic admissions to make informed decisions enhanced by technology without compromising the integrity of the admissions process.

Learning Objectives:

• Determine how to implement contemporary practices in a holistic admissions process to meet institutional admissions requirements.
• Describe various strategies for using technology to enhance existing admissions practices.
• Develop a customized plan for a cutting-edge institutional admissions process.
