The American Dental Education Association's 2001-02 Survey of Dental Student Financial Assistance obtained data by which to report, in aggregate and by type of school, the amount of financial assistance being received by dental students, in the form of loans, grants and scholarships, and work-study programs. Over 90 percent of the dental students received financial assistance through one or more federal, state, and/or school source. The average amount of assistance per student was dollar 35,100, ranging from an average of dollar 27,700 at public dental schools to dollar 51,100 at private dental schools. Loan programs accounted for almost 88 percent of all financial assistance; grants and scholarships, for 12 percent; work-study programs, for 0.2 percent. Overall, financial assistance exceeded average tuition and fees by 102 percent. With such levels of reliance on financial assistance, it remains imperative that students, even at the undergraduate level, receive the counseling, monitoring, and advice that will help them judiciously seek and manage appropriate types and amounts of financial assistance as they obtain their dental education.

Just because the economy fluctuates does not mean your practice has to do the same. You can take steps to ensure that your practice secures optimal income during a weak economic cycle. By performing "WOW" customer service, cutting down on accounts receivable, increasing case presentation, and motivating your staff, your practice can secure a steady, if not increasing, flow of income during a weak economy. A determined positive attitude by you and your entire staff will result in success and will keep you immune from the myth of income and the economy.
