ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS for the PRE-RADIOLOGICAL SCIENCE PROGRAM
Successful completion of a minimum of 16 units including:
- 4 units in English
- 2 units in Mathematics (1 unit must be in Algebra)
- 3 units in Social Science
- 1 unit in Biology with a related laboratory
- 1 unit in Chemistry with a related laboratory
- 5 units academic electives
Prospective students will be admitted directly with a minimum cumulative high school grade point average of 2.5 and a minimum SAT score (or ACT equivalent score) of 960 (old test) or 1040 (new test). Students transferring from another college or university must have completed a minimum of 12 college-level credits with a minimum cumulative grade point average of 2.5. Students failing to meet these criteria may be admitted to a preparatory program.
All applicants must arrange for all information to be released and sent to the Office of Admissions before any admissions decision can be rendered.
PROGRESSION REQUIREMENTS and ADMISSION TO THE RADIOLOGICAL SCIENCE MAJOR
Students admitted to this program start their studies at the university as a Pre-Radiological Science major, taking courses that meet university graduation requirements. At the end of the first year of study, a student should have a 3.0 GPA or better to progress to the second year, which must be maintained throughout the entire second year of studies. During the spring term of the sophomore year, students apply to BRMC for admission into the School of Radiography. The deadline for applications is Feb. 1. To be admitted to the school, a student must be in good academic standing at the university. Because of limited numbers of openings at BRMC in any given year, preference for admission is given to students who have performed well academically. In the past, this has meant that in general, students with a 3.0 or better GPA who have satisfied all course requirements (with special attention paid to performance in the “core courses”) at the university have been admitted. This may vary from year to year, however, depending on the number of applicants who apply for the available openings (currently up to 16 openings each year).
