Requirements

This is a limited enrollment program, and students are required to meet the screening requirements in effect at the time of screening. Students who screen and are accepted into a limited enrollment program will be required to complete the curriculum that is in place at the time of entrance into the program. If students who screen are not granted admission, they must rescreen and satisfy all screening and curriculum requirements in place for a future program to start.

A. Students must have submitted the following documents to the Welcome and One-Stop Center:

Student Information Form.
CT Request for Screening Form
Copy of current certification of your imaging field
A professional resume documenting years of experience in a related imaging field (must include employer, job responsibilities, and dates employed)

Screening Deadline

The deadline is the first Wednesday in March of even years. If space is available in the program after the initial screening deadline, qualified students will be accepted in an order based on academic qualifications. All required materials must be submitted to the Records Office by the screening deadline.

The number of students that can be admitted to any clinical education course is limited for any given session. Therefore, a screening procedure is used to select the academically best qualified from those who request consideration.

Preference is given to residents of CLC’s district, or a community college district which does not offer a Medical Imaging program and is a member of the CAREER consortium. Students who live outside of CLC’s district but are eligible for in-district tuition because they are employed by a district employer are NOT considered residents of the district for purposes of selection into the program.
Students who are selected for the program and attend clinical are required to undergo a background check and a urine drug screen. The results of the background check and drug screen may result in the student losing his/her seat in the program. The costs are borne by the student.

Students must maintain a minimum grade of “C” in each Medical Imaging course to continue in and graduate from the CT program.
