Welcome from the dean

Welcome to the VCU School of Dentistry's Dental Class of 2027. We are truly pleased you have selected VCU for your dental education experience. The next four years will be challenging and rewarding all at the same time as you become a dental professional.

You are joining a school that has great support from the alumni who have graduated before you and we will look forward to you becoming alumni very soon. Your education at VCU will mold your future career aspirations in oral health care, and I urge you to absorb the rich environment you will find and take full advantage of all educational opportunities. VCU School of Dentistry has outstanding and dedicated faculty and staff that compliment our talented and compassionate student body.

We look forward to seeing you at the dental school on July 31 for orientation. Best wishes for a great dental school experience.
