Colleagues:

The American Dental Education Association would like to announce the launching of the Dental Hygiene Centralized Application Service (DHCAS). This is a centralized application service for individuals applying to entry level, degree completion, and graduate degree dental hygiene programs. Similar to ADEA AADSAS, the application to dental school, applicants are able to apply to multiple participating programs with one application and one set of documents. For more information on ADEA DHCAS, please visit www.adeadhcas.org.

Applicants can begin researching participating dental hygiene programs in the Search Engine now. Search participating dental hygiene programs by state or by program type at http://programpages.dhcas.org/search. Applicants are able to begin their application and submit through ADEA DHCAS after August 12, 2013. Please note the instructions for the application will be posted on the website the week of July 15th .

We are asking that you please share this information with colleagues and interested students. Thank you for helping to spread the word .
