1. College entry-level ability in mathematics, English and writing, as defined by LSCS. For further information, contact any of the student development offices.
2. Satisfactory completion of Introduction to Anatomy and Physiology (BIOL 2404) or Anatomy and Physiology I and II (BIOL 2401 & 2402) with a "C" or better within the previous five years and prior to submission of an application for the radiologic technology program.
3. A cumulative grade point average (GPA) of at least 2.0 in high school and/or college.
4. Students must register for and take the PSB Health Occupations Aptitude Test.
5. Final acceptance into the program is contingent upon a satisfactory background check (as required by hospitals) that is completed by a college approved agency at the student's expense. Clinical facilities may also require completion of satisfactory drug screening.

Applying for Readmission or Transfer:
A former student of any radiology program seeking admission to the MRT program will be considered upon submission of the following documents to the readmission committee at least two months in advance of the semester for which admission is being sought:
1. A completed petition for readmission/transfer.
2. A signed personal statement from the student describing their reasons for originally leaving the program. This statement should include a description of the ways in which they have, or plan to, resolve the situations which caused them to leave the program previously.
3. Current official college transcripts from any other colleges, universities, or proprietary schools the student has attended both before entering the program and since leaving the program.
4. A minimum of three recommendations mailed to the program under separate cover. One letter should be a "report of status" from the former program director.
Additionally, readmission is based upon:
• Space available in the program.
• Satisfaction of current college and program admission requirements.
• A readmitted student is required to fulfill the graduation requirements that are in effect at the time of readmission.
Any student who was required to exit the program for academic reasons may only be granted one (1) readmission at the discretion of the readmission committee. Students gaining readmission to the program must repeat any academically deficient course(s) and may be required to audit other program course(s) offered in the same semester.
Students who have been out of the program for one (1) or more years will be required to audit or retake all previously completed RADR courses and pass the final examinations for those courses with a grade of "C" or better.
Students who are asked to leave the program for violation(s) of the LSCS's or the program's code of conduct, ethical standards, academic honesty, civil rights, or harassment policies are not eligible for readmission.
