Equivalency Assessment Application

This application is for the Educational Credentials and Qualifications Assessment for Dental Hygienists Educated in a Dental Hygiene Program NOT Accredited by CDAC or ADA-CODA. 

In order to be considered for an Equivalency Assessment of your credentials and qualifications, an applicant must be able to provide evidence of meeting the minimum requirements found on the Equivalency Assessment webpage. ​

If those criteria are not met, the FDHRC™ will not conduct an Equivalency Assessment, will reimburse the application fee minus a non-refundable fee of $150 + tax, and the applicant will be denied eligibility. 

Please make sure to consult the Equivalency Assessment Handbook and Equivalency Assessment page for further details about how to apply for eligibility and a list of required supporting documents.
