Radiologic Technology (AAS)

Admission Requirements and Procedure

Students are admitted to the full-major once per year.  The departmental application is May 15th for the following Fall semester start.  Admission to the Radiologic Technology Program is competitive in that the department receives more applications than the seats available in each starting class.  In order to be eligible to take Radiologic Technology (RADT) courses, students must not only be admitted to the University of Alaska Anchorage as a degree-seeking student, but students must also submit a formal application directly to the Medical Imaging Sciences Department.  Applicants may be invited to interview as part of the application process.  The Radiologic Technology program does not use a wait list--non admitted students must submit an application each year for consideration.  Additional information about admissions process can be found on the Admission Requirements and Procedures webpage.

Prospective students are encouraged to meet with an academic advisor to ensure all program admission requirements and course prerequisites are met prior to admission.

Distance Delivered Site Information

The Radiologic Technology Program distance delivers their program to select Alaska communities including Fairbanks, Juneau, Ketchikan, Bethel, and Kenai.  The Radiologic Technology Program accepts students in Fairbanks every year, in Kenai and and Juneau on even numbered years, and Bethel and Ketchikan in odd numbered years.  Students who apply to a distance site must follow the same admissions process as those students applying to the Anchorage campus, including being admitted to the University of Alaska Anchorage as a degree-seeking student.  Students who are accepted at a distance site attend classes on UA campuses in those communities through video conferencing.  Students are also required to attend a 3-4 week clinical session in Anchorage during the summer after their first year.
