Dentistry (Dent-P)


Overview

The 5-Year Undergraduate Dental Program (Dent-P) is not open to university-level students or to students outside Québec. This program is only open to immediate graduates of the Quebec Collegial (CEGEP) System.

The Dent-P Program combines a preparatory year in the Faculty of Sciences followed by the four-year Doctor of Dental Medicine (DMD) Program in the Faculty of Dentistry. The objective of the Dent-P Program is to offer students the opportunity to adapt to university-level academics before entering the rigorous curriculum of the DMD Program.

The Dent-P Program consists of two consecutive semesters of a Bachelor of Science-style curriculum. Students are officially registered in the Faculty of Science during their preparatory year and must complete the required courses and maintain a minimum cumulative grade point average (CGPA) of 3.5 to continue on to the DMD Program. 

This program is not open to university-level students.
