I want to go to school to become a dental hygienist, I am 23 and have graduated from a two year program in a completely different field. I have not taken any science classes in college and I know I will need a lot for dental hygienist school, can you still get into the schools with no science classes?

Just go to your local community college and enroll. A friend of a a friend just did the same thing you are trying to do. It worked out great for her, she came into the program at the university level at a junior standing, her classes counted as electives and she only had to do her core courses and ended up with a bachlor degree instead of two associates.
There are many vocational dental schools. Do a web search. In Effingham, Illinos there is a dental school by the name of Excel. It is about 25 miles from Eastern Illinois University. The cost are steep, but I think yo can do it in half the time. Good Luck!

No, since you need a license, even if you have one from another country its invalid since the tests are different. By the way the act will never get approved even with a democratic senate and house since Obama is against illegals. Personally I understand where he is coming from, its not hard to become a citizen quit being an ******, and just become a citizen. We don't hate you, we irritated since you evade taxes, evade drafts (if their is one), and don't contribute as a whole while sharing are luxuries. I my family came from Eastern Europe during world war two, once we reached Manhattan we waited our time at Ellis Island suffering the two lousy weeks to pass. All your efforts are futile anyways getting a degree here doesn't transfer, I know since my mom is a hygienist and works with someone born in (I think) the Dominican Republic where she was a licensed dentist, and had only a hygienist license here.
