School of Dental Medicine Accreditation
New pre-doctoral dental education programs undergo a three-step accreditation process to be fully accredited. The School of Dental Medicine completed the first step of the process and received its initial accreditation from the Commission on Dental Accreditation in August 2024. The second step will occur in the Spring of 2027, and the final step will occur in early 2029. The dental school will be on a seven-year accreditation cycle following this final step.
For more information about the accreditation process and CODA please visit the CODA website.
