Doctor of Dental Surgery
The Doctor of Dental Surgery (D.D.S.) program covers 11 consecutive 14-week trimesters. The course of study maximizes the interrelationship of all basic sciences and clinical detail sciences required by the Commission on Dental Accreditation of the American Dental Association.USC's reputation for excellent preparation of its graduates for private practice has been enhanced by curriculum changes that permit students to begin clinical experience in their first year. At the same time, opportunity and encouragement are given to those who might elect to pursue careers in teaching and research.

D.D.S./M.B.A
. In response to changes in dental care delivery systems and to the increasing complexity of dental care financing, the USC School of Dentistry offers an innovative program for individuals desiring knowledge in both dental science and business administration.The D.D.S./M.B.A. dual degree program is a five-year program offered cooperatively by the School of Dentistry and the Graduate School of Business Administration. Students must complete all requirements established by both schools for their respective degrees. The program involves completion of the first year in the School of Dentistry, the second in the Graduate School of Business Administration, and then completion of the balance of the slightly modified dentistry program. A total of 48 units must be completed in the Graduate School of Business Administration.
First Year: required dentistry courses
Second Year: required business core courses
Third to Fifth Year: Completion of the remainder of required dentistry courses and elective courses. The dentistry requirement of four units of selective courses will be met by business courses.
The program may be completed in five calendar years.
Admission Requirements: Students who have a baccalaureate degree from an accredited college or university and have successfully completed one year in the School of Dentistry will be considered for admission to the Graduate School of Business Administration. All requirements for admission to the regular M.B.A. program (grade point average, GMAT score, etc.) must be fulfilled by the dental student for admission to the Graduate School of Business Administration.
The D.D.S. and the M.B.A. degrees are awarded simultaneously upon completion of their requirements by the School of Dentistry and the Graduate School of Business Administration.
Dental Problem Based Learning Program
The Problem Based Learning Program has been designed to address the recommendations developed by the National Academy of Sciences Institute of Medicine in their report, "Dental Education at the Crossroads - Challenges and Change." This program will present the identical set of curricular learning outcomes that were recently approved by the American Dental Association Council on Dental Accreditation. The Dental Problem Based Learning Program represents an alternative approach to the USC School of Dentistry curriculum rather than a new curriculum.The objective of the Problem Based Learning Program is to educate a student who will be committed to lifelong, self-motivated learning, skilled in the techniques of problem solving in a clinical setting, well-prepared to deal with the future advances in dental therapy and dental care delivery, able to deal with the medical presentations of dental patients, effective in group learning/accomplishment environments and highly skilled in the delivery of dental health care of outstanding quality.
Admission Requirements
Minimum admission requirements are identical to those for the Doctor of Dental Surgery; refer to the Admission Requirements section under the Doctor of Dental Surgery.
Curriculum
The problem based learning curriculum achieves the identical set of curricular learning outcomes found in the USC School of Dentistry curriculum. However, the methodology and course structure differ. For instance, greater emphasis is placed on clinical observation and the small group learning experience.Periodic individual meetings held each trimester by PBL faculty members help to communicate each student's progress. Peer feedback may also play an integral role in the PBL curriculum.

International Student Program
This program is designed to teach qualified dentists from other countries the knowledge and skills available in the United States. Time necessary to complete the program depends upon the doctor's ability; a minimum of two years is usually required. About eight months will be devoted to fundamental, technical and academic procedures. The remaining time is devoted to clinical training as necessary to achieve graduation qualifications. Graduation from the International Student Program leads to a D.D.S. degree but does not give automatic licensure to practice dentistry. However, graduates are eligible to take the State Board Dental Examinations in most of the United States. (A few states still require U.S. citizenship.)
Additional information may be requested from the Office of Admissions and Minority Affairs, University of Southern California School of Dentistry, Room 216, Los Angeles, CA 90089-0641, (213) 740-2841.
Admission
Prospective students must apply to the International Student Program, USC School of Dentistry, University Park, Los Angeles, CA 90089-0641, or call: (213) 740-2841. Applicants will be tested in December and accepted based on the following requirements: (1) completion of the formal application (before October 1 for admission to the program in April). (2) Successful completion of the National Boards Part I examination of the American Dental Association (ADA). The alternative to the National Board examination is the ADA Science Achievement Test given at USC in December. A score of 75 percent must be attained in each category. Higher scores are advantageous in evaluation of the candidate's academic level. (3) Proficiency in English is an important key to success in the program. To demonstrate competence in English, applicants must take a comprehensive language examination administered at USC by the American Language Institute (ALI) in December. Scores of 202 or higher are acceptable. If a candidate scores lower than a level of 202 but has a score of 600 on the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL), the English requirement is waived. The TOEFL can be arranged through an American embassy. (4) A personal interview by a member of the international student faculty of the School of Dentistry. (5) All candidates must take the Graduate Record Examinations (GRE) before the end of October; this can usually be taken at any American embassy. (6) Two letters of recommendation from former teachers. (7) A brief but accurate account of clinical experience. (8) Documentary proof of license to practice from a Ministry of Health or proper governing body. (9) Satisfactory completion of and competence in the following academic and artistic entrance examinations to be given in December: (a) fixed prosthodontics (practical); (b) complete removable prosthodontics (written and practical); (c) operative dentistry (practical); (d) spatial relations (practical). (10) Complete official documents (transcripts) of all college and university course work, including dental education. (11) Certification of dental degree. Candidates chosen will be those who demonstrate the best qualifications in all academic and practical skills.
Student Visas
The I-20 Student Visa is issued to the applicant only after complete admission and acceptance has been granted. Before the papers can be processed, the accepted applicant must present a copy of the I-94 form (white sheet in the passport) and a notarized statement of financial support for tuition and expenses for two years ($100,000) to the International Student Program. The USC International Admissions Office will issue the I-20 visa upon receipt of these documents.
Financial Assistance
It is university policy to accept candidates who have the personal financial resources to pay for graduate study. Foreign students are usually ineligible for financial assistance through the university or U.S. banks with the exception of permanent residents or U.S. citizens. In no case is financial assistance available to foreign nationals attending school on student visas.Permanent residents and U.S. citizens enrolling in the International Student Program are advised that financial support for all students is severely limited, therefore, all applicants are urged to carefully examine their financial resources before accepting an offer of admission.
Curriculum
Each candidate for the D.D.S. degree should complete the course of instruction in two years, however, some individuals may need more time. Instruction is given by the ISP faculty in conjunction with the regular faculty and staff of the School of Dentistry. The first four to eight months will be spent in preclinical exercises to acquaint the student with the fundamental technical procedures used at USC. The balance will be used for clinical procedures related to diagnosis and treatment of patients.
Grade Point Average Standards
Since this is a short program and highly concentrated, a grade point average (GPA) of 2.0 (A = 4.0) must be maintained each trimester. Therefore, each applicant will be provisionally accepted. If a doctor is unable to maintain an average GPA of 2.0, he or she will be asked to resign.Periodic meetings each trimester by the entire International Student Program faculty to evaluate each student's progress are used to help counsel the students more effectively in their course work. From these meetings, recommendations are made regarding advancement, special programs and disqualification.
Graduation Requirements
In order to receive the Doctor of Dental Surgery (D.D.S.) degree, students in the International Student program must: (1) successfully complete all the courses in the curriculum, (2) pass Part I and Part II of the ADA National Board examination, and (3) pass an oral comprehensive examination on the clinical sciences administered by the faculty of the International Student Program.In addition to meeting the academic requirements indicated above, students must have a completed administrative clearance form on file in the Office of the Dental Registrar before a degree can be conferred. This administrative clearance indicates that the student has met financial and other obligations to the university and to the student's patients.
