Steps to Financial Aid Apply for Scholarships

When completing the 49ͼ¿â application, select Dental Assisting.  Your major at 49ͼ¿â will be the Associate of General Education-Health Partnership, and you'll be able to take the general and prerequisite courses needed before you transfer to Central Carolina Community College.

Meet with April Ikner, Director of Onboarding & Engagement, to confirm your program selection and complete a Letter of Intent.  Once you've done this, you'll be assigned to a 49ͼ¿â advisor who is familiar with the CCCC program requirements and can help you select courses.

When you are ready to apply to CCCC, 49ͼ¿â will send your official transcripts for you.  While the courses you take at 49ͼ¿â will transfer to CCCC, admission to the Dental Assisting program is not guaranteed.
