The BS/DMD Combined Program is administered through the biology department at SIUE.
Freshmen students who matriculate at SIUE, who choose to major in Biology/Medical Science, and who have few or no transferred credits from other schools are eligible to be considered for the program.
After consideration of science teacher evaluations and grades achieved during the freshman year, the chief health professions advisor recommends students to the SIU SDM for acceptance into the program.
The SIU SDM notifies students who have been accepted into the program.
Students' performance during their sophomore year is similarly evaluated for continuation in the program.
If continued in the program, students apply to dental school and take the DAT no later than the fall of their junior year.
Students who have demonstrated continued excellence and maturity in their classes, as well as on the DAT, are accepted into dental school, at the discretion of the SIU SDM.
- After successful completion of the first year of dental school, students earn a BS degree from SIUE, and at the end of four years of dental school, a DMD degree from SIU SDM.
