To welcome our new students, each is presented with a personalized white coat to wear throughout dental school.

The White Coat Ceremony receives support in part from the Harry K. Zohn (DMD ’84) and Cecile A. Feldman, DMD White Coat Endowment Fund as well as contributions from our alumni and friends.

If you wish to send an incoming student some words of encouragement as they embark on a time of intense study and personal growth, please consider making a $75 donation to support the White Coat Ceremony and welcome our incoming students.

Please refer to www.coronavirus.pitt.edu for updates on Community Levels and mask guidance. The university’s face covering rules will, at a minimum, be consistent with CDC guidance, which relies on community COVID-19 levels to determine when indoor masking is required.  The university requires face coverings indoors when COVID-19 community levels are “high”.  Face coverings are optional indoors when community levels are “medium” or “low”.  


See Pitt's Visitor Parking Map for parking options on campus.

If you require a physical or dietary accommodation to participate in this event, please contact Ms. Alycia Maltony in the Office of Student Affairs by August 1, 2023.
