completing the program receive an Associate in Applied Science (A.A.S.) degree and
are eligible to take the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists examination.
Graduates of this program are prepared for entry-level employment as radiographers
in hospitals, clinics and private offices. Radiographers are licensed in the State
of Rhode Island.
The Radiography Program offered by the Community College is accredited by the
Joint Review Committee on Education in Radiologic Technology (JRCERT), 20 North
Wacker Drive - Suite 900, Chicago, IL 60606; Tel: 312.704.5300.
Technical standards: These standards give a sense
of the physical requirements, psychomotor skills and affective behaviors associated

- An official copy of high school transcript or GED, including date of
graduation
- Successful completion of MATH 1700: Algebra for Technology with a grade of
C or better
- Successful completion of ENGL 1010: Composition I with a grade of C or
better
- Successful completion of XRAY 1000: Introduction to Radiography with a
grade of C or better
Program Requirements:
- Students must complete all courses in this program with a cumulative index
of 2.0 to qualify for the Associate in Applied Science Degree.
- No grade less than "C" is acceptable in any of the technical courses (XRAY);
students receiving less than "C" will become program dismissals.
