The Office of Academic and Student Affairs is here to support you from the moment you begin your journey as a dental student through graduation. Our team offers guidance on admissions, financial aid, academic progress, and student life, and we’re always available to connect you with resources across campus.

Dental school is demanding, but you don’t have to navigate it alone. Whether you have a quick question or need more in-depth support, we’re here to help. Stop by our office in room M-134 of the Dental Science Building Monday through Friday, 8 a.m.–5 p.m., or give us a call at 859-323-6071.
