The number of students admitted to the major is dependent on the number of clinical internship sites and their student capacity. Class sizes are approximately 12-15. Admission to the major is on a competitive basis.
Applications are available at the clinical science department office.
Students are advised to apply for admission to the professional program early in the spring prior to desired admission, after having taken or registered for the pre-professional requirements. Applicants are advised to have a major portion of their general education requirements met by the time of application as well. Applicants are required to successfully complete 40 hours of observation in a radiation therapy department. Students are encouraged to plan to visit during summer, semester and spring break times. Some sites may require that the student have had a set of immunizations prior to the visit to comply with hospital policy.
