Application & Acceptance Process

Fill out the online application and submit it electronically. There is no charge for this application.

To complete the application process, please email us a copy of your dental hygiene license to madalyn.smolinski@nau.edu

You will be notified of your acceptance to the program once we evaluate your application, usually within 24-48 hours.

You must submit official transcripts from each university or college listed on your application to the Northern Arizona University Undergraduate Admissions Office. Your application will not be processed until ALL transcripts have been received at Undergraduate Admissions.

Northern Arizona University

PO BOX 4084
Flagstaff, Arizona 86011-4084

You should receive written notification of your acceptance from the undergraduate admissions department within four to six weeks of transcripts and application submission.

If you have not received the notification it is likely that one or more of your transcripts have not been received. Please contact Undergraduate.Admissions@nau.edu and check to see that your application and all of your transcripts have been received.

Once you have been accepted into the university and enroll in your first course, the Registrar will perform a transfer credit evaluation on your transcripts and assign an appropriate Northern Arizona University equivalency to those courses that are applicable to the program.

Upon completion of the transfer credit evaluation, the Dental Hygiene Completion Program Advisor will then send you an unofficial curriculum check sheet outlining a plan of study which will help guide you in completing your degree.

You may mail copies of unofficial college/university transcripts to allow advisers to advise you about what coursework will be required to complete the degree at Northern Arizona University.
