Don't just take our word for it, see what past students have to say about the Dental Hygiene Online Degree Completion Option!

Carol Martin, Class of 2013: Distinguised Alumni Humanitarian Award Recipient 2016


I completed my BS in Dental Hygiene through Minnesota State University, Mankato in 2016 and I am thrilled to share my positive experience. As a working professional, finding a program that fit into my busy schedule was paramount. The online courses and structure of the program provided the perfect solution, offering both flexibility and comprehensive education. I was able to complete the program in about 1.5 years, taking a few general classes over the summer semester.

All the modules were well structured, covering all necessary aspects of dental hygiene from public health to practical applications. One of the standout features of the program was the accessibility of the instructors. Despite being an online course, I felt a strong sense of community and support. They were always available for questions and were engaging in our discussion forums. Their expertise and dedication were evident and greatly enhanced my learning experience.

I have used many of the skills that I have learned through my education with my new role as a Quality Assurance Specialist. Specially, researching compliance topics and developing training courses for the doctors and team members in my organization.

I highly recommend this program to any dental hygienists out there who may be looking to further their education in the dental field.

I appreciated the flexibility of the program with my family and work commitments. I also liked how working was incorporated into school--you could use work experiences and observations for discussions or projects, and also you could implement any new knowledge into your work immediately!

To a faculty member - Thank you once again for being an outstanding instructor. You are truly superior at what you do and it inspires me! I have been thinking about the possibility of becoming an educator. Thanks for everything, I am going to miss not having any more courses with you as my instructor....any future instructors have a lot to live up to!
