Students in this program will satisfy the degree requirements published in the 2023-2024 academic catalog at St. Louis Community College and the 2024-2025 academic catalog at SLU. Students must complete all courses and transfer to SLU by the Fall 2027 semester.

Radiation Therapy, B.S.

  • Students must complete all the courses outlined on the Program Plan unless an exception is approved by SLU.
  • Students must complete an application for admission.
  • Students may be subject to admission review under circumstances outlined in the Admission Policies.
  • Students must present a 2.70 cumulative college GPA at the time of transfer to SLU.
  • This program plan is structured for a Fall semester start at SLU. Students interested in starting the Spring semester should contact SLU to explore this option. 
  • The number of students admitted into XRT each fall semester cohort is based on the availability of clinical placement sites for practicum experiences. No student will be admitted until clinical placement for practicum experiences has been secured. While uncommon, it is possible for admission to be delayed until the next cohort if clinical placement is not secured. To help ensure placement in the desired cohort, students should apply to SLU at least one semester in advance of their desired start term.
 

Program Plans provide a guided pathway for students to earn an associate degree at their home institution and a bachelor's degree at Saint Louis University. Students may change the sequence in which they complete courses at their home institution. Students who complete a course that is not part of this Program Plan are encouraged to contact SLU to see if the course could be substituted.
