Statement of Purpose

The Directory of Utah Health Professions Training Programs is a reference tool for individuals intending to pursue a career in health care. This directory is compiled and distributed by the Utah Center for Rural Health and Southern Utah University. This directory is provided to middle and high schools, higher education institutions, workforce service centers, and hospitals throughout the state of Utah. As you use this book, it is recommended that you begin at the Table of Contents page where training programs can be searched by the institution or by specific career. Efforts were made to obtain information from all programs who chose to participate and it is possible that not all health professions programs have been identified. Also, program information is subject to change, so we recommend going to the website of a specific institution for their latest program information. Pre-professional programs at higher education institutions are not individually included in the directory (pre-medical, pre-dental, etc.). However, you can find a list of advisors for pre-professional programs in the back of this book. This directory provides resources to help you in exploring healthcare careers. Health career and professional websites are listed in the back of the directory and are great references for individuals interested in exploring careers. The last section of this publication includes information on salaries and job growth for specific careers. Information on scholarships and financial aid are also included. The entire directory is available on our website at www.suu.edu/ruralhealth/directory. We encourage you to print or copy pages for use by you or your students. For directors of health professions training programs, if your program was not included in this edition, we apologize. A blank survey form is found on the following page, and we ask that you fill it out and return it to us. Any corrections, additions or questions about this directory can be forwarded to Rita Osborn at the Utah Center for Rural Health, 351 West University Blvd., Cedar City, UT 84720, call 435-865-8520 or email [email protected].

grades are limited. Admission would require outstanding achievement on the part of the candidate during their career or unique individual circumstances. Preference will be given to candidates with a science and cumulative GPA of 3.4 or higher. On average, candidates admitted to colleges of osteopathic medicine the past three years have GPAs greater than 3.4.

• All candidates are required to take the Medical College Admissions Test (MCAT) within three (3) years of matriculation. RVUCOM does not combine the highest scores in each section from multiple exams. o Note: On average, candidates admitted to colleges of osteopathic

medicine have MCAT scores of 502+.

• Students must provide official transcripts from all colleges attended where a degree was earned prior to matriculation. In the event of coursework completed by an approved agency. A list of these agencies is available in the University Handbook & Catalog.

PREMAJOR/PREREQUISITES Various majors/bachelor’s degrees accepted. Prerequisites above.

DEGREE/CERTIFICATE AWARDED Doctor of Dental Medicine (DMD)





APPLICATION DEADLINE(S) November 15


WAIT LIST (Y/N) Yes


Students wishing to apply to the Roseman DMD program must have completed all prerequisites for pre-dental or health science majors at an accredited institution. Although the CODM encourages applicants to complete their bachelor’s degree programs, a degree is not required for admission. A student may pursue any major, provided she or he fulfills the science and communications coursework prerequisites prior to matriculation into the DMD program. Students must have completed a minimum of 60 semester credit hours (90 quarter hours) to be eligible for consideration. Submit an application through the ADEA’s AADSAS application site. The application is available at www.adea.org Please submit your supplemental application as well as your $75 application-processing fee directly to our website.


• 6 semester courses in Biological Sciences* (with laboratories if offered) • Two semester courses in Inorganic Chemistry with laboratory • Two semester courses in Organic Chemistry (with laboratories if offered) • One semester course in Biochemistry • Two semester courses in Physics • Two semester courses in communications: these are designed to develop skills

essential for effective communication with health care professionals, patients, staff and others involved with the practice of dentistry. There are many ways students can fulfill the communications prerequisite including, but not limited to, the following**: · English, composition, creative, business, technical or scientific writing

courses (one writing intensive course is required); · Literature or Philosophy courses (if writing intensive); · Communication courses focusing on speech, debate, public speaking or

interpersonal relationships; · Journalism courses emphasizing interviewing, reporting, or editing; · Psychology, Counseling or Education courses that include a supervised

practicum or field experience; · Theater courses that include acting experience.

* Biologically‐oriented courses in other disciplines, such as physical anthropology with lab or

field experience, may satisfy the biology prerequisite if approved by the health professions advisor. ** English as a Second Language coursework does not meet the communications requirement. Roseman CODM recognizes that some institutions have developed a unique sequence of courses for pre-dental and premedical majors to fulfill these requirements. Candidates who complete a unique, non‐traditional, pre-dental curriculum are asked to submit a letter from their pre-health professions advisor or science faculty advisor detailing the course of study.
