Subject: RE: Change for RADT in terms of minimum requirements and grade

 

For RADT minimum courses to apply, students must earn a C or better.

 

It will show up on the new HS application which is not yet posted. Does NOT apply to priority courses.

 

Also RADT will begin summer classes June 6.

 

DMS will start right after memorial day.

 

This is because the RADT classes are 10 weeks in the summer and DMS is 8 weeks.

Rad Tech Partnerships with area hospitals

Montgomery College has a partnership with Washington Adventist, Washington Hospital Center, and Holy Cross hospital. Students who are admitted into the hospital programs are permitted take general education courses at MC and then once the student is done with the hospital training they can receive transfer credit for 42 hours of RT courses as well as 2 credits for medical terminology and receive their AAS from MC. This opportunity is limited to students who were admitted into the hospital program and is monitored by Rose Aehle. Any students who come in asking about this program should be directed to Rose Aehle (rose.aehle@montgomerycollege.edu) - RT Program Coordinator.
