Radiologic Technology FAQs
What is my first step?

What is an RT (R)?
Radiologic Technologists or radiographers operate X-ray equipment to produce radiographic images for diagnosis of diseases.
How long is the program?
Students attending full time can complete all general education and radiologic technology curriculum requirements in three years.
Can I attend the Radiologic Technology program on a part-time basis or in the evening?
No, the Radiology Technology program is a full-time 2-year program with daytime classes, laboratory, and clinical experiences.
Can I transfer courses from other colleges/universities?
Prerequisites and general education courses with a grade of C or better are transferable provided the course is consistent with one of our offerings. Transfer of credits from another radiologic technology program must be approved by the AACC program department chair.
How can I advance in the field after I receive my RT (R)?
Radiological technologists are eligible to sit for advanced imaging modality exams (computerized tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, mammography and interventional procedures) one year after their initial certification. We offer continuing education courses, workshops and seminars to prepare for these advanced exams.
