Deadline for DMD Advanced Standing Application

November 15 is the ADEA CAAPID application submission deadline for the Boston University Henry M. Goldman School of Dental Medicine (GSDM) DMD Advanced Standing Program.  Earlier submission of the application is strongly recommended.

The CAAPID application becomes available in early March on the ADEA website.  Applications to the GSDM DMD Advanced Standing Program may be submitted from early March through November for admission in the following calendar year.  Due to processing requirements, CAAPID will release your application to the dental schools a few weeks after your materials are submitted.

We recommend submission of the complete CAAPID application by August to allow Admissions ample time to review an applicant’s qualifications.  Close review of DMD Advanced Standing applications begins following the seating of the prior application year’s class in late July.  Interview invitations are issued throughout the admissions cycle, with most interviews held from September through February.

Electronic application record

Application records are maintained electronically. The electronic CAAPID application includes the applicant’s academic history (official ECE course-by-course transcript evaluation required), and letters of evaluation (also called letters of recommendation, or recommendations). The CAAPID application also includes official NBDE results and TOEFL scores.

Boston University application fee

Applicants will be emailed a link for payment of the $75 Boston University application fee after GSDM Admissions receives the CAAPID application.

Updates

Applicants can update certain sections of the CAAPID application after submission, until the CAAPID cycle closes:

Clinical, professional, volunteer, research and teaching experience

Test results (INBDE, NBDE, and TOEFL), which must be submitted directly by the testing agency to CAAPID

Visa or citizenship status

Address and contact information

New CVs or resumes cannot be uploaded to CAAPID after you submit your application: e-mail your updated CV to asdent@bu.edu
