WICHE is the Western Interstate Commission on Higher Education and provides tuition funds for dental students pursuing health care related education, including dental education. Students who are selected to receive WICHE funds get $19,900 per year to help offset their dental education. In return, they must practice 1 year in Arizona for each year of support. If a WICHE graduate chooses to practice in an underserved area they receive 2 for 1 credit. Currently there are 51 slots available to Arizona dental students. For information on the WICHE program, contact the Arizona Board of Regents at 602-229-2500.
