Student Support

UT Health San Antonio School of Dentistry is committed to an environment that enables our students to thrive academically and personally, with opportunities for enrichment and leadership throughout their time with us. Diversity, Inclusion and Equity is an integral part of the school’s dedication to provide a welcoming and supportive culture for our students.
