"Because Dalhousie is the only dental school in the province, many patients simply show up on their own."
"The visa process can be mundane, but starting on it and getting it done early will save you a lot of headache and struggle down the road."
"We are taught unnecessary detail and can sometimes be confused by test questions that were beyond our level of understanding."

What are the best things about attending Dalhousie University Faculty of Dentistry?

The staff is here to help. The faculty lets the student body know in their first week of classes that they have an open-door policy, meaning students can visit their professors to discuss anything, including how to improve in a class, study strategies, or even personal matters. In response, the staff may offer helpful resources, counsel and guidance, and anything else that may enable the students to succeed.
