In this episode of the Dental School Guide Podcast, we chat with a recently accepted student at Roseman University College of Dental Medicine whose journey to dental school is all about perseverance and purpose.

Her passion for dentistry started in high school during a simple dental visit — the moment she saw a filling being placed, she knew she had found her calling. While her path wasn’t easy — facing challenges with less-than-ideal grades and DAT scores — she stayed focused, gained hands-on experience as a dental assistant, and applied to schools that felt like the right fit for her.

She shares how Dental School Guide gave her the support, honesty, and confidence she needed to present her best self throughout the process.

Her message to others? Everyone has their own timeline. Keep going, believe in yourself, and don’t be afraid to go after your dream of becoming a dentist.
