Prerequisites
Before entering the program, students must complete the following minimum prerequisites. Students should consult with their academic advisors for appropriate courses and semester sequence in order to complete prerequisites. Prerequisite courses must be completed by the end of the spring semester prior to entry. Equivalent prerequisites may be taken at any accredited college or university. The code “GE” indicates a course that meets the campus’ General Education core.
Approved courses that meet the General Education core can be found at this section of the University College website.

Radiography
This area is complete for applicants who have earned 55 college credit hours in radiography (Only 41 hours required for entry in the ultrasound track).
Students who received their radiography education without transferable university credit and who have full credentials in radiography (ARRT) may be awarded credit for their credentials and experience and/or may petition to test out of professional radiography courses. A copy of the Special Credit Policy is available upon request. Each applicant will be evaluated individually.
Students must select additional courses in radiography or in areas that support, complement, or extend their radiography background if they lack 40 semester hours of earned college credit in radiography.
Suggested Elective (If necessary) A total of 88.0 credit hours are needed before entering the Bachelor of Science in Medical Imaging Technology Program; 74 credit hours for those entering the ultrasound track. It is unlikely that a student applying to this program will need any elective credits. Courses from a university based radiography program and special credit awarded by credential/experience will be used to meet the minimum hour’s requirement.
