The drug screening and background check is provided by Castle Branch along with Compliance Tracker/Immunization verification for incoming and current Radiologic Technology students. Deadline dates for completion of criminal background checks will be announced by program coordinators during program orientation.

Inquiries regarding the college鈥檚 clinical health requirements may be directed to the program coordinator for Radiology, Beth Kielbasinski at (708) 608-4112 or kielbasinskib@morainevalley.edu.

[1] Provided list of clinical health requirements is subject to change based upon the policies of the clinical facilities. Students will be notified, in writing, of any modifications to the list of clinical health requirements.

Clinical Rotations
Students will rotate through a variety of clinical settings to ensure timely and appropriate clinical experience. Students may remain in the same hospital for two semesters (i.e. fall, spring or summer) of clinical education and will complete rotations at hospitals/clinics during their five semesters in the program. Assignments are based upon experiences needed before graduation. Students will be informed of their next assignment prior to the end of the preceding semester. If an affiliate experiences significant attrition or if other problems arise, the clinical coordinator may move students among affiliates at any time.

Students will have access to clinical settings which provide a wide range of procedures for competency achievement, including mobile, surgical and trauma examinations.

Students must be willing and able to travel to any clinical site that they are assigned to. Starting time may be as early as 7 a.m. The afternoon shift might end no later than 10 p.m. Shifts are scheduled for eight hours and will not exceed 10 hours per day.

Technical Standards
All students must be able to perform the essential functions of the curriculum. In addition to the general admission criteria above, radiography students must be able to:

• Lift more than 30 pounds routinely
• Work with the arms above the head routinely
• Push, pull, bend and stoop and kneel and squat routinely
• Work standing on their feet for the majority of the day
• Help patients on and off the X-ray equipment from wheelchairs or carts
• Write and speak to patients and staff effectively
• See image details clearly

Selection Criteria
Applicants for the program will be considered in the following order:

1. Qualified residents of the district and residents of districts engaged in cooperative agreements who submit a Radiologic Technology application by January 31 of the year they plan to enroll in the program
2. Qualified nonresidents who submit a Radiologic Technology application by January 31
3. On a space available basis, applicants who do not meet all of the admissions requirements or the deadline may be considered after January 31. Weighted Point System based on two factors:
   • Program-specific courses GPA (courses required in the A.A.S. Radiologic Technology degree)
   • Success Course grades listed below

Point criteria are assigned values in accordance with the chart below. Students also are required to meet the current minimum standards for admission.

Ties will be broken based on 1) Overall GPA 2) Date and time of application submission.

Success Courses
(BIO, MTH and MRT-110 courses must have been completed no longer than five years prior. If these courses are over five years old, no points will be earned. ACT/SAT scores must be no older than 18 months from the test date to meet academic requirements by the application deadline.

MRT-110

BIO-180 and BIO-181

MTH-109 or MTH-139 or higher
or 6 points for SAT 520 or high. ACT math score of 20 or higher, scores must be no older than 18 months from the test date
or 6 points for placement at or above MTH-139 on placement test

MTH 120 does not satisfy this requirement.

Success Course Weighting
A = 3 points X Credit hours
B = 2 points X Credit hours
C = 1 points X Credit hours
All other grades = No points

Examples

• Student has BIO-180 with an A鈥�3 points X 4 credit hours = 12 points
• Student has BIO-181 with a A – 3 points X 4 credit hours = 12 points
• Student has MTH-109 with a B鈥�2 points X 2 credit hours = 4 points
• Student has MRT-110 with a B鈥�2 points X 3 credit hours = 6 points
• Total points for success courses = 12 for BIO-180 + 12 for BIO 181+ 4 for MTH-109 + 6 for MRT-110 = 34 points
• Student has program specific GPA of 3.65 = 13 points
• Student would earn 47 points towards getting accepted into the program

Re-Application
Re-applicants must complete a new Radiologic Technology Admission Application and submit it to the 好色先生 and Records Office before January 31. (Acceptance letters sent one month after close of application deadline).
