Read this before you trust a row
- This is not an admission probability. A school's average is one number; admitted students sit above and below it.
- The state median weights each school equally and leaves out schools with no published DAT average.
- Figures come from each school's own site where it publishes them (collected 2026-10). Rows marked * were filled from public aggregators (ADEA Official Guide figures quoted by DAT-Prep, Student Doctor Network).
- Advanced standing = a program for dentists trained outside the US/Canada, listed in ADEA CAAPID.
