note = "Funding Information: The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation‐funded “Pipeline, Profession and Practice: Community Based Dental Education”, also known as the Dental Pipeline Program. It was a major national effort to increase the enrollment of historically underrepresented students. The ten‐year project (2000–2010) was funded by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation in collaboration with the California Endowment and the WK Kellogg Foundation. It funded dental schools in the nation to increase the recruitment and enrollment of URM students and to include community‐based education as part of the curriculum. Fifteen of the participating dental schools were followed as part of an evaluation of the program. Over a period of 5 years, the fifteen schools employed the following strategies to increase the recruitment and enrollment of underrepresented minority students: summer enrichment programs, postbaccalaureate programs, held meetings with preprofessional advisors from colleges with a major enrollment of URM students, created new recruitment materials directed to colleges with high enrollment of URM students, environment scans, attended admissions workshops directed to a whole‐file review of candidates. Some formed collaboratives to work together on efforts. ",
