Associate in Science with a Major in Radiography

Program Requirements

Radiography courses are planned as a progression of increasing complexity; they build upon one another and are taken in sequence. A minimum grade of "C+" is required in each radiography course. Pass/Fail is not an option. Students must successfully complete both the theory and clinical components of each radiography course in order to progress to the next sequential course. Attendance is required for class and clinical experiences.

If a student has failed to attain a grade of "C+" or better in more than one clinical radiography course within the total program of studies, that student will be dismissed from the program.

If a student has failed to attain a grade of "C+" or better in the same radiography course twice, that student will be dismissed from the program.

Any student receiving a clinical failure in a radiography course will receive an "F" for the course and be terminated from the radiography program.

A minimum grade of "C" is required in all science and core curriculum courses. All courses may only be repeated once.

Students are expected to schedule additional time outside of scheduled radiography classes and college/clinical laboratory hours for the practice and redemonstration of skills in the College skills laboratory.

Clinical experiences are provided at St. Vincent's Medical Center and other health care facilities within the community. In order to attend clinical experiences, students must pass a physical assessment and have a PPD administered and read annually.

In addition to the regular tuition and fees, radiography students assume the following expenses: uniforms, textbooks and supplies, and transportation to clinical experience settings.
