I’m a senior in high school & I am planning to ED 2 Smith College. Another college I was considering is Bryn Mawr College, because I plan to go to dental school. BMC has a very strong relationship with UPenn Dental, my dream dental school. Smith’s page shows their top grad schools as UMass, NYU, Columbia… etc., but not UPenn. Meanwhile, on the UPenn Dental School Website’s statistics about the undergraduate universities students attended, Smith has never been listed. I liked Smith more than BMC when I visited and did extensive research, but my only goal is to attend Penn Dental, and I am willing to like to study undergrad in the place with the best chances of making it to Penn Dental. Do Smith students regularly get into top dental schools or med schools? Will my chances of getting into Penn Dental be compromised if I go to Smith?
Even other colleges that I am considering as backups, such as TCNJ and RU seem to send more students to Penn Dental & top medical/dental schools than Smith does.
Note: I know that a lot of this is based on DAT scores, college GPA, etc. but it would be extremely beneficial if my undergraduate institution had a relationship or regularly sent students to Penn.
Thanks
