Can I take this program if I am still in high school but I am 18?
No. This program is an “adults only” program. You must have an awarded high school diploma or GED and be over the age of 18.
What is the difference between the Limited X-ray Tech program and the full Radiography Technology program?
The Limited X-ray Tech program teaches students to learn how to take a variety of x-rays that they will see in a clinic setting. This program is designed to help students receive a limited education in Radiography so they can decide if they want to pursue the full Radiography Technology program and/or help with increased current wages. Students that take the Limited X-ray program can work in a variety of clinics but are not allowed to take images with the C-arm, Fluoroscopy, and of certain x-ray exams. Students that want to have a full career in x-ray will need to pursue a Radiography Technology program. Students that want to specialize in an alternate modalities (Ultrasound, CT, MRI, Mammography, etc) will also need to take a specialized program or get cross-trained after completing the full Radiography Technology program.
Admission requirements may be met by taking the Entrance Assessment OR by providing qualifying documentation. The Entrance Assessment can be taken at a Testing Center, and qualifying documents can be sent to transcripts@mtec.edu.
