There are several required courses as well as a number of elective courses selected for the purpose of broadening and enriching their education.

Requirements

The assessment of an applicant's academic performance for CEGEP-level applicants is based on the overall R-score (cote de rendement au coll茅gial; cote R). As an indicator of a competitive cote de rendement, here are the CRC averages for admitted Dental Preparatory students in the past three years:

• 2014: 34.27
• 2013: 34.38
• 2012: 34.74

Required courses

• Biology 301 NYA (00UK), General Biology II (401) NYB (00XU)
• Chemistry 101 NYA (00UL), 201 NYB (00UM), Organic Chemistry I (301) DYD (00XV)
• Mathematics 103 NYA (00UN), 203 NYB (00UP)
• Physics 101 NYA (00UR), 201 NYB (00US), 301 NYC (00UT)

Students in the 700.A0 program must have completed the Biology objectives of 01Y5 and 01YJ, strictly follow their CEGEP curriculum, and take every opportunity to complete the following: Chemistry: 01YH and Physics: 01YF or 01YG.

Applicants not admissible to the Dent-P program:

• Applicants who are completing a Diploma of Collegial Studies (DEC) in more than two years (with the exception of certain students taking a 鈥渄ouble DEC鈥� or those enrolled in an approved Sports 脡tudes program);
• Applicants who have already obtained a Diploma of Collegial Studies (DEC) who are registered in an undergraduate degree program or who have completed an undergraduate degree are not eligible.

These students must apply to the four-year D.M.D. program.

A student accepted to the Dent-P program will be required to register for a full year in the Faculty of Science. In that year, the student must take courses totalling 30 credits. Following the successful completion of this year, determined by a Student Promotion Committee, students will proceed into the first year of the four-year D.M.D. program. Students must obtain a minimum cumulative GPA of 3.5 with all individual grades 鈥淏鈥� or higher for required courses and complementary science courses, and passing grades for the remaining complementary and elective courses to be promoted into the first year of the D.M.D. program.
