Scottish Dental Schools Won’t Admit New Classes in Fall 2021

Dental schools in Scotland will not accept freshman in the fall of 2021 because the previous year’s classes will repeat the same coursework for another year.  This decision was made because dental educators did not feel that students received enough hands-on instruction and clinical experience during the past year due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Graduation of senior students will be on hold for another year. Students who applied to begin dental school in fall 2021 will receive notice of acceptance by May 2021, but they will not be able to begin their studies until fall 2022. Click here to read more.
