The Harding Predental Scholarships are awarded to outstanding predental students to participate in a summer preceptor program. In the recent past this has been at Goldman School of Dental Medicine at Boston University and NYU. During a month in the summer, students attend a dental program where they may visit dental practices, attend presentations, carry out a research project (including a paper and presentation), and participate in hands-on workshops.

The Harding Trust was establilshed in1981 to promote development of technical writing skills among predental students. The fund pays for student travel and housing costs and allows for a stipend for food for the month students are attending a program at a dental school. In return, students write a technical report and agree to participate fully in the Preventive Dentistry Program in fall and spring semesters of the following semester.

Applications are due in the Preprofessional Health Advising Office by March 24.

Students who are selected for the program may need to provide their immunization information to the school prior to beginning the program.
