Pima is a for-profit school, and the tuition will reflect that. Look at their employment placement rates, plus how many students are still in the program after one year. If you toured their facility and clinics, would you know what determines a great program? Ask where you get hands-on patient treatment hours–at the school or in a dentist’s office? Ask to talk to graduates who have been in the field for several years and have them tell you about their experience. Have you looked at any community colleges that have dental hygiene programs?

Make sure you really want to be a hygienist before you commit to the field. Visit several dental offices and observe what hygienists do during a typical day. Ask them where they received their training.

Your chances? Possibly better than you think, once applicants find out the cost.
