Good reviews
Overall 4.5
Dental Hygiene: Best choice I made for DH school. It being a School of Dentistry gives us many opportunities and resources. No HESI exam, no need to find patients(although I recommend to recruit your family if you can), 2yr program, 75+ needed to pass all classes, great professors who care, teach/train us in the best way, tough but worth it.
Overall 4.5
This is the best school for dental hygiene. Every thing is on campus, you only have to drive out to a few locations, but they are worth it. Best teachers, program, setup, everything. And the Baylor cafeteria is excellent. You will not regret going here. And I'm planning on going back for dentistry :) I couldn't think of going anywhere else.
