Radiologic Technology, BS Traditional Track

104-105 credit hours

This program is part of a joint program/affiliation agreement with Mercy Hospital St. Louis-School of Radiologic Technology. Through a combination of coursework at Lindenwood and then a two-year didactic/clinical program (at an affiliated accredited radiologic program), students will confer a BS degree. This program requires that students take a minimum of 30 hours at Lindenwood University before they can begin their clinical coursework. Students in this program may not be eligible for merit scholarship opportunities.

During second year students apply for admission to the partner’s radiological technology program. Admission to the program of study is competitive. Students who complete the first two years of coursework are NOT automatically admitted into the affiliated partner’s program.

The program has specific eligibility requirements and utilizes a secondary application admission process managed by our partner(s). The program accepts a limited number of students into each cohort. Interested students should work with their advisor to ensure they complete the core prerequisite courses and know when to apply.

Students will be charged a Radiologic Technology Overhead Charge during junior/senior year while in clinical courses.
