About IDP Curriculum

The International Dental Program is divided into two stages:

• First Stage: a (six week) standardization course of 280 hours.
• Second Stage: To be held during 4 semesters (2 years). All students, without exceptions, must take the two stages.
• Standardization Course starts in January and ends mid-February.
• The Second Stage is divided into 4 semesters, beginning in mid-February.
• La Salle's IDP is a bilingual program.

Non-Spanish Speaking Students

Because Mexico is a Spanish speaking country, the applicants admitted to IDP who are coming from non- Spanish speaking countries, must take an intensive course in Spanish in the Language Center at La Salle University, from October 6th to December 12th of 2008, and continue with a Spanish regular course from January 6th of 2009 through the first year at IDP. Students have to take and pass the La Salle Spanish language exam.
