You may choose to personally deliver them to the Dental Hygiene Program office. A Rose State College advisement sheet is acceptable for completed RSC courses. Final fall semester 2012 grades must be submitted before the deadline. Any degree awarded must be posted on a transcript or verified by a copy of the diploma.
