Admission Policy

OUR POLICIES

The Admissions Committee considers as much information as possible when evaluating your qualifications for the study and practice of radiation therapy.

The factors considered in the selection of applicants include:

  • Academic performance in the courses required for admission,
  • Overall academic performance
  • Standardized test scores
  • Letters of recommendation
  • Motivation, character, and communication skills
  • Volunteer or observational experience in your chosen field
  • Admissions Committee members' evaluation from the personal interview

The number of students accepted into the program each year is limited, with selection made on a comparative basis. All students must be at least eighteen years of age prior to the start of any clinical rotation.

RADIATION THERAPY DEPARTMENTAL OBSERVATION

All applicants are required to seek observational experiences in a hospital radiation therapy department. It is required that you make at least one four-hour visit to a radiation oncology department before your admissions interview. Contact the program office for assistance in scheduling.

INTERVIEWS

A personal interview, by invitation of the Admissions Committee, is required for admission. A final decision on acceptance is made after this interview.

The purpose of the interview is two-fold: It enables you to ask questions in order to evaluate the program for your needs and it gives the program personnel a chance to weight such factors as your motivation and interpersonal skills.

The admission committee does not consider race, religion, national origin, veteran status, sex, age or disability when evaluating candidates for admission. The program adheres to the institution's Equal Employment Opportunity policy.

REGISTRY SCORES

The ARRT requires a written request for registry score results. Have the results sent directly to the Program Office.
