| The University offers a two-year course pathway in dental hygiene that is designed for students who wish to complete the required coursework at UL Lafayette and then transfer to a BS degree program for clinical training. Although the University does not award a degree in dental hygiene, students are provided with the instruction and practice to move toward their academic goals. In the state of Louisiana, Louisiana State University Health Science Center (LSUHSC) School of Dentistry and UL Monroe offer a Bachelor of Science (BS) degree program in this field.
Students preparing to transfer to LSUHSC School of Dentistry, UL Monroe, or out-of-state dental hygiene programs should obtain detailed admission requirements, procedures, and prerequisite information from the institution into which they plan to transfer and consult with their academic advisor to plan an appropriate course of study.
