Admission Requirements

Students applying for admission to the Radiologic Sciences program must meet all Admission Requirements. Enrollment into the program is limited and depends on the number of clinical openings available, as well as the student capacity as determined by the accrediting agency (JRCERT). Admission into the program does not guarantee a position in a particular track/modality for one's senior year.

• Apply to the University of South 成人快播 and indicate 鈥沦耻尘尘别谤鈥� as the entry term, 鈥淭谤补苍蝉蹿别谤鈥� as the Admit Type, and 鈥淩adiologic Sciences鈥� as the planned major. Acceptance to the University does not guarantee admission into the professional component of the Radiologic Sciences program.
• Submit official college transcripts for all coursework not completed at the University of South 成人快播 by the application deadline. Transcripts are not required if the coursework has already been transferred to USA. Applicants must have a minimum GPA of 2.0 ("C" average) on previously completed college-level courses as well as at least a "C" in all math and sciences courses. Applicants鈥� overall GPA (USA and transfer GPA, if applicable) will be used for admissions purposes.

Students must complete all General Education requirements from the pre-professional component of the program.
Note: General Education and prerequisite courses do not have to be completed prior to starting the Bridge program, but any outstanding pre-professional requirements must be completed prior to the bachelor鈥檚 degree being awarded.

Students must complete a 6 credit hour sequence either in literature (Area II 鈥� EH 215 & EH 216, EH 225 & EH 226, or EH 235 & EH 236) or history (Area IV 鈥� HY 101 & HY 102 or HY 135 & HY 136)

All undergraduates must complete two designated writing credit (W) courses, at least one of which must be in the student's major or minor.

*Factors that influence required hours include 1) Physics course taken, 2) being exempt from EH 101 based on ACT, 3) whether or not AHP 101 was taken, 4) receiving credit by examination, and 5) if general elective needed to bring total up.

Registered Radiographers wanting to apply to the program must complete a 6-hour bridge course (RAD 491) before enrolling in the professional component. Upon successful completion of the bridge course, 38 semester hours of upper level credit (i.e. credit for the first professional year of the Radiologic Sciences program) will be awarded for the student鈥檚 previous radiography training. 
Note: The bridge course is offered once each year during the summer semester. Therefore, students should plan to complete the bridge during the summer prior to their enrollment in the fall semester. Failure to take this course during the first summer term at South could cause delays in fulfilling the graduation requirements within three semesters of one's initial enrollment date.

Upon successful completion of the bridge course, students will choose one of 3 tracks for the Second Professional Year.

Estimated Expenses

• Books
  Approximately $700-800
• Uniforms
  Approximately $250
• Clinical Data System
  One-time payment of $150
• Drug Screen
  Approximately $25
• Background Check
  Varies based on number of prior residences, but approximately $50
• Personal Medical Insurance
  Proof of medical insurance coverage is required of all students who are selected for admission to the program and should be submitted only when requested in the letter of admission. The reason for this requirement is that accidents occurring in the clinical setting, such as an accidental needle stick, require immediate medical attention. In such cases, the student must be prepared to pay for the required services. Therefore, it is necessary for students to carry personal medical insurance throughout the program.
• Housing
  On campus student housing is available as well as many rental homes/apartments in the area. Due to the various types of housing available to students on campus, it is suggested that students contact the Department of Housing for information.
• Transportation
  Students must be prepared to travel up to 90 miles from campus to participate in clinical 成人快播 experiences.
• Professional Liability Insurance
  Professional Liability Insurance is required as a protective measure in the event a student becomes entangled in a legal suit involving patient care activities within the clinical setting. Professional Liability Insurance is provided by the university as a component of tuition to students accepted into the professional component of the program.

During the professional component, students must be prepared to travel from campus in order to participate in the clinical 成人快播 component of the curriculum. Classes and clinical assignments are scheduled Monday - Friday throughout the three semester program (Fall, Spring and Summer). Students may be required to attend class on campus and participate in clinical laboratory exercises or clinical 成人快播 experiences during the same day. Schedules limit the combined hours for clinical 成人快播 and didactic instruction to not more than 40 hours per week and not more than 10 hours per day. Students are assigned to clinical 成人快播 rotations 25-35 hours each week during the academic year. Students will be assigned to up to seven different clinical 成人快播 settings while enrolled, and should be prepared to travel to sites up to 90 miles from campus.

Students may transfer no more than 60 semester hours from a community college.

USA鈥檚 Registrar鈥檚 Office has created the Transfer Equivalency Tables which allow students to quickly access an unofficial evaluation of how previous credits will be counted at South. If your institution is not listed, please email a PDF of your unofficial transcript to the Registrar鈥檚 Office at records@southalabama.edu. Please allow 3-5 business days for the unofficial evaluation to be completed.

Students from area community colleges may be eligible to participate in South鈥檚 Pathway USA program which supports a smooth transition for students transferring to South who have earned an Associate in Arts or Associate in Science degree from one of our participating schools. Pathway USA Participants will have access to a South 成人快播 academic advisor throughout their time at their participating community college. Visit Pathway USA for more information.

Financial Aid is available to students in this category for those who qualify. Visit USA's Financial Aid department for more information.
