What To Do To Become
A Good Candidate
For The Radiologic Technology Program
The Radiologic Technology Program
has "selective admissions." Approximately 26-30 students
are admitted each fall. Students must compete against other candidates
for admittance. The criteria used are all awarded a numerical value,
and the candidates with the most points are invited to become a
radiologic technology student at Tyler Junior College.
The student must document THEA passage or exemption prior to application.
THEA is a Texas State exam. For more information contact the Program
Director (903) 510-2346
Points are awarded to: ACT Composite* and Science
Reasoning Scores, overall or cumulative grade point average (GPA),
the GPA in "required courses"*, grades in BIOL 2401*,
2401* and computer science*, whether student is in district, whether
student has had classes at TJC, documented, hands on, patient
care experience, and whether or not the qualified student had applied
previously.

and Physiology I and II)
