Admissions Requirements

Applicants must be graduates of a United States or Canadian dental school and hold either the DDS or DMD degree.  Other course work may be required as individualized programs are developed by the faculty to meet the specific needs of each student.

Those applying for the Graduate Endodontics Program are encouraged to have at least one year of experience in general dentistry, i.e.; private practice, member of the Armed Forces, Public Health Service, or an AGD/GPR experience.  However, this is not absolutely necessary.  We do not require a GRE exam score for admission.

Application Process

To apply to the Graduate Endodontics Program, please complete an application [PDF]. The application must be accompanied by a $50 non-refundable application fee.

Once accepted into the Graduate Endodontics Program, a separate graduate school application for a MS degree must be submitted on-line.

Tuition & Fees

There is a fee assessed each semester of enrollment, based on the full-time graduate student tuition at the University of Louisville.  This fee is determined each year and therefore subject to change.  Tuition for 2008-09 is $8,206 for in-state residents and $18,090 for out-of-state residents.  An annual program fee of $5,000 is also required.  Contact the program to obtain the current fee.

A $300 non-refundable fee, which is deducted from the yearly assessment, is also required upon acceptance into the program.
