    Acceptance to the Radiography program is competitive. The higher your GPA in the three prerequisite courses, the better the chance of being selected for the program:

    1. A 2.75 GPA or higher must have been maintained in the 10 credit hours of prerequisites
    2. Selection of the 12 students will be based upon those with the highest GPA in the three prerequisites

    In the event there are two or more applicants with identical GPAs, the following will be used as a tiebreaker (if you have the highest combined GPA, including completed general education courses, you will be selected):
