Learn All About a DAT Fee Waiver and Save Money

The Dental Admission Test (DAT) is a standardized, multiple-choice test designed for students who wish to apply to dental schools in the U.S. and Canada. Applicants can take the test almost any day of the year.

Rely on DoNotPay to request a DAT fee waiver in the blink of an eye. Take advantage of our practical tool, waive your college application fees effortlessly, and save hundreds of dollars.

Dental Admission Test (DAT) Application—Everything You Need To Know

Students need to register for the American Dental Association (ADA) to take the Dental Admission Test. Before signing up, you need to obtain your DENTal Personal Identifier Number (DENTPIN). Once you get your DENTPIN number and log in to the ADA website, go to the application page and apply to take the DAT.

Each DAT application costs $475, which is super pricey. Eligible applicants can get a partial fee waiver that will waive 50% of the application fee.

How To Get a DAT Fee Waiver

The American Dental Association grants a limited number of fee waivers every year. To request your DAT fee waiver, you should complete the appropriate form and send it to datexam@ada.com together with one of the following documents (not older than 18 months):

• Proof of financial aid that should contain your name as well as the name of your school
• Your tax return form 1040—if you’re still registered as a dependent, you should send your parents’ tax report

On the ADA website, you can check if fee waivers are still available at the time of your application and which form you need to complete. You can also request the fee waiver form by sending them an email at datexam@ada.com.

You can expect an answer within five to ten business days from sending your request. Wait until you find out their decision before submitting the DAT application.

Who’s Eligible To Receive a DAT Partial Fee Waiver?

To be eligible for a DAT fee waiver, you need to:

• Be taking the test for the first time
• Have American citizenship or be a resident alien
• Have shown financial hardship and received financial aid from your school

If you already received a DAT fee waiver in the past, you won’t get it again. The fee waiver doesn’t cover any schedule changes.

How To Request a Dental School Application Fee Waiver

Have you already taken your Dental Admission Test and want to save as much money as possible on dental school application fees? The American Dental Education Association (ADEA) enables students to apply to multiple dental schools without wasting time on completing each application individually. The ADEA AADSAS platform is dedicated to predoctoral programs.

Students need to pay a $259 fee for the first program they want to apply to and $112 for every additional application. Some schools have additional fees that applicants need to pay to them directly.

Applying to dental schools with the ADEA AADSAS is pricey. They offer a limited number of fee waivers to students who have financial difficulties. The fee waivers are granted on a first-come, first-served principle.

To apply for the ADEA AADSAS fee waiver, you should create an account and follow these steps:

1. Select your name in the upper right corner
2. Click on the Fee Assistance Program link
3. Provide the required info
4. Scan your or your parents’ latest tax report and attach it to the form

The ADEA AADSAS fee waiver covers the initial application and two additional ones.

Some schools offer fee waivers outside the ADEA AADSAS platform. Contact your desired schools or programs to check if you can get their fee waiver forms.

Dental School Application Fee Waiver Requirements

The ADEA AADSAS fee waiver can be issued to students who:

• Have American citizenship
• Live with a parent or spouse who has American citizenship
• Come from a family whose income is up to 200% higher than the U.S. Federal Poverty Guidelines

Here’s an example of the 2020 U.S. Poverty Guidelines and the requirements of the ADEA AADSAS for the same year:
