Candidate must present credit card (MasterCard, Visa or Discover only) to the Business Office no later than 3:00 p.m. the Friday of the Board Examination. We are not able to accept checks for instrument rental fees; these fees must be paid with a credit card. The candidate's credit card will be charged the full amount (example: $6,000 if dentist). The candidate will be given a rental slip to present to the 4th floor Dispensary for instrument pick-up. The candidate will return instruments to the 4th floor Collection Area where an inspection of the instruments will be made. If all instruments are returned undamaged, the 4th floor Collection Area will give the candidate a statement indicating that their credit card will be credited the refundable amount (e.g. security deposit). The cost for any missing instruments will be deducted from the refundable amount. The refund will be applied to the account by Tuesday following the Board Examination. Candidates can contact the Business Office at (706) 721-9447 in order to make a payment by phone or to obtain more information about rentals.
