Disadvantaged Student Recruitment Manual for California Dental Schools
The five dental schools in the State of California have developed a statewide, collaborative recruitment program for the purpose of recruiting students from disadvantaged backgrounds. This activity is a core component of a three-year grant awarded to each school by The California Endowment, “Pipeline, Profession & Practice: Community-Based Dental Education” (Pipeline). This manual was prepared to assist California’s five dental schools with the implementation of the recruitment collaborative. The goal of the program is to expand the pool of students from disadvantaged backgrounds and to enhance the diversity of the dental profession student population.
