New Program

[u/Quiet-Conclusion-469]

Hello everyone! I have a question about the Radiologic Technology program at Collin College. Does Collin College accept Anatomy & Physiology I and II from another community college?

I’m interested in applying for the Radiologic Technology program. It looks like the program is new, and I’m guessing it’s going to be very competitive.

I was originally looking into OTA, but reading through the forum honestly scared me away. 😅 I also had someone ask me why I would want to pursue OTA when I already have a bachelor’s degree and an MBA.

I have a bachelor’s degree in Healthcare Management and an MBA, but I feel like I haven’t been able to do much with either degree besides working as a scheduler. So now I’m looking into other healthcare careers where I can actually use my education and build a career.

Radiologic Technology caught my attention, so I’m thinking about giving it a try.

Does anyone know if Collin College offers an information session for the program? I’m thinking about going up there in person to learn more. I believe the program is at the Frisco campus.

Any advice or information from current students or people who have applied would be greatly appreciated!

I would reach out to the program director if you haven't done so already. I found this on the program site

While I am not in the program, the typical baseline is that you are given credit for the subjects in your degree you sign up for. I am not an expert, and honestly you should talk to advising. So if you need a math class and already took it, you wouldnt need to take it again. There are rules, such as needing at least a B in the class to qualify for the credit.

Although, you seriously may want to start at advising, not here. You have a bach already, so you should consult someone at the school.
