Estimated Tuition & Stipend

The total resident tuition includes the School of Dentistry fees, University student fees, health insurance, and long term disability.  Residents benefits include a stipend, dental tuition benefit, scholarship, and health insurance support.  The difference between the tuition and benefits is approximately $6,000 for out-of-pocket expenses in year one and $10,000 for out-of-pocket expenses in years two and three.  All residents have the same tuition rate and receive the same benefits.

Every resident in the University of Minnesota School of Dentistry Advanced Education Program in Prosthodontics receives a 25% appointment as a “Dental Fellow Specialist” for the summer semester of the first year. Beginning with the fall semester of the first year, this designation changes to a “Dental Fellow” and this appointment carries with it a ½ day per week predoctoral teaching responsibility in prosthodontics (either clinical or pre-clinical). This appointment provides an annual stipend.
