What the numbers say

IPEDS records 102 dental degrees conferred by Texas A&M in 2024-25. The dental program lasts 4 years, and the college lists the Dental Admission Test among its entry requirements. No INBDE pass rate is shown for the Texas A&M University College of Dentistry, since the Joint Commission on National Dental Examinations does not release results school by school. Applicants file through the Texas Medical and Dental Schools Application Service (TMDSAS) and must submit by October 1; the college gives no cycle year for that date, so check the program's page. Its course list asks for English, statistics, general and organic chemistry, physics and biochemistry, plus biology that includes anatomy with lab, physiology and microbiology. Accreditation status with the Commission on Dental Accreditation reads Approval without Reporting Requirements; the college's last site visit took place in 2018, and 2026 is the year listed for its next review. Among graduates of the dentistry, first professional degree field at Texas A&M, the College Scorecard median was $129,828 1 year after completion for the 2020-21 and 2021-22 cohorts. Earlier finishers, from 2017-18 and 2018-19, had a College Scorecard median of $155,946 4 years after completion, again for graduates of that field. BLS data put the May 2025 median wage for dentists across Texas at $162,360, shown here as statewide context.
