APPLICATION CHECK OFF LIST
______ The Dental Hygiene Program uses the National ACT exam as
part of our point system and is required to be taken by all
applicants. There are absolutely no exceptions to this requirement.
**The writing/essay portion of the exam is not required.**
A minimum score of 20 on the reading component of the ACT test
is required for consideration for eligibility for admission to the
program. The reading, science, and composite scores are also utilized
in admissions scoring. Test scores must be taken within the time frame
of February 1, 2011 and December 31, 2011. You may take the ACT test
more than one time to see if you improve your score although this is up
to the individual applicant. Your highest set of ACT scores will be utilized
for the application process. Scores need to be reported directly from
ACT to the Dental Hygiene Department. Student copies will not be
considered as official documentation.
