The elusive 7 year accelerated Dental Dual Degree Program at Penn

<p>Is anyone here in it? Can anyone tell me about it? I am only interested in the Upenn CAS --> Penn dental route. Not interested in going to LeHigh, Mulehn, villanova or any of the other options.</p>

<p>Anyway, I can't find ANY non-general information on it. I have millions of questions on this program - it's my dream program, and I want it badly</p>

<p>Wikipedia: University</a> of Pennsylvania - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia --> It's under "Coordinated dual-degree and interdisciplinary programs"</p>

<p>I might as well as list all the most important questions</p>

<ol>
<li>What stats are necessary?<br></li>
<li>As a dual degree program... if I do not make it into this program, can I still attend CAS?</li>
<li>I'm not familiar with all this lingo about dual degrees, majors and all. Do I still get to pick my major if I do this program, or any dual degree program for the matter? </li>
<li>When it says dual degree, does it mean I get a degree in my major and then in dentistry? I'm confused</li>
<li>if you are in this program through Penn CAS --> Penn dental route, please PM me.<br></li>
<li> I heard that no one got in the Penn CAS --> Penn dental route for a number of years. D: Is this true? Will they discontinue the Cas --> Penn program? I know someone who got into LeHigh --> Penn..</li>
<li> Can I ED this program?<br>
thank you.</li>
</ol>

<p>It would be better if you contact someone from the admissions office directly</p>

<p>It looks like you apply out of high school, and if accepted, the idea is that you would finish a BA in Biology in 3 years, and then matriculate into the dental school for the remaining 4 years of the 7 year program.</p>
