I chose UDM because: | | It is a small university that offers a quality education and a
relationship with professors. You're not just a number at UDM. The
university also offered me a great financial aid package that made a private
school education possible. The biggest draw, however, was the Six-Year BS/DDS
program that I am a participant in. It allows me to receive my Bachelor's in
Science and Doctorate of Dental Surgery in six years, two years fewer than
the traditional eight at a renowned dental school, the UDM Dental
School. |

Best Advice to give prospective college students: | | The have two pieces of advice that could greatly benefit college
students' college career. The first is to do well in high school and try
to also get involved in different organizations, teams, and groups. Your hard
work will pay off in financial aid, program opportunities, and testing out of
classes. Secondly, I would advise a prospective student to practice time
management. It is one of the greatest skills you can have as a college
student. It is important to have fun here, but also to get in your study time
and be the best student you can. |
