Dental Auxiliary Educational Programs, enrollment is limited.
2. Once enrolled in the DA course sequence, you will be required to provide documentation of a current physical exam including a Hepatitis B and TB
Carrier test prior to enrolling in any second semester course. A Hepatitis B vaccination is strongly recommended by the faculty and by the Commission
on Dental Accreditation.

your own transportation to dental office facilities and internship office assignments. You must supply your own patients for DA 123L and DA 131L.
4. HSC 140 can be taken prior to enrollment in the program for CPR certification. However, if HSC 140 is taken prior to enrollment into the Dental Assisting
program, you must maintain valid CPR certification for the second semester of the program and the sequential courses. It is also required for
the Certification Exam and the Registered Dental Assistant Exam.
5. General Education Prerequisite courses must be completed prior to taking any DA course. A grade of “C” (2.0) or higher is required in all courses
for the program.
6. You must achieve a “C” (2.0) minimum grade in each DA course to be eligible to continue enrollment in this program.
7. Validation is not required for this Health program.
8. This program can be completed in a one-year track or a two-year track option. A limited number of two-year track seats are available each year. See
the program coordinator for two-year track scheduling assistance.
9. Students who are seeking transfer credit to another college or university should take the approved English composition courses instead of the OAT
courses; also BIO 152 and BIO 153 instead of BIO 140. Consult with the Counseling & Advising Center for help with your course selection.
