Dental Hygiene Application Workshops

Message from Health Occupation Department:

Spring 2022 Dental Hygiene Applicants: Thank you for your interest in our dental hygiene program. Application workshop information will begin in Spring 2022.

You must attend one of the application workshops to apply to the dental hygiene program.
The Dental Hygiene Department has transitioned to a fully electronic application process.
The application cycle for Fall 2022 admissions will open in January 2022. The application window will be from 2/1/22 - 4/1/22. Electronic applications received between 2/1/22 and 4/1/22 will be considered for admission into the Dental Hygiene program.
Applications will be due on Friday, April 1, 2022 by 11:59pm***

Please check the "Application information" tab in January 2022 for detailed instructions on how to submit your Dental Hygiene application.

Please Note: The Dental Hygiene building will be undergoing a remodeling process beginning the end of December 2021. Therefore please be aware that the program will be in temporary modular classrooms for two years, except for our out outside clinical facilities which remain unaffected. The curriculum will not be affected but the number of accepted students will be somewhat decreased so that we can continue to maintain social distance and follow safe Covid protocols, for as long as the protocols are mandated. We are projected to return to our new building in the Fall of August 2024

If you are ready to apply to the Dental Hygiene program, you MUST register for a Dental Hygiene application workshop. Attending an application workshop is mandatory for applying to the program. The workshop will cover information on prerequisites, admission criteria, and how to complete and submit the application. A Cerritos College student ID number is required to register for a workshop and to apply to the Dental Hygiene program.

Message from Counseling Department:

Before the workshop download the application from the Dental Hygiene website and have copies of your transcripts and Advanced Placement scores (if applicable) available. You will need these items to complete your application during the workshop.

On the day of your assigned workshop please make sure your first and last name appear on your screen on the device you are using as that is what we will use to record attendance which is mandatory to apply to the program. Make sure to sign in on time as the meeting will be locked 10 minutes after the start of the session.

Targeted for students who are ready to apply to the Dental Hygiene program.
