Dental Admission & Application Info
The Dental Assisting Certificate Program allows for admission once per year in fall term. Admission is based on a first-come, first-served basis for all applicants meeting the basic competencies in math, reading and writing. Currently enrolled COCC students may enroll through the early preregistration process in May, with new students enrolling through the regular admission process for new COCC applicants beginning in July. New students should contact Enrollment Services - Admissions (541/383-7500) as soon as possible for additional information.
Individuals seeking admission into the Dental Assisting program must have a high school diploma or equivalent, complete a college application and must meet entrance requirements. Any previous transcripts should be forwarded directly to the COCC Enrollment Services - Admissions with a request for evaluation prior to registration. Currently enrolled students who have met the minimum requirements must be assigned an advisor prior to program admission. Students who meet the basic prerequisite competencies will be placed in the program according to seat availability on a first-come, first-served basis. A waiting list will be formed to allow for potential cancellations.
Prior to the start of clinical classes, admitted students must have a Hepatitis B immunization, a T.B. test and demonstrate immunization for measles or must sign a release form indicating their refusal to be immunized. A current CPR card is required prior to entering the clinical setting.
