Mammography

In addition to admission to the college, students must also meet eligibility requirements specific to this program, and only a limited number of students are admitted into a given cohort.  If there are more applicants during a cycle than there are available positions in the cohort, eligible applicants will be ranked according to specific criteria and students are admitted or deferred according to that rank.

Please see the Admissions Information Book below for program requirements, minimum eligibility requirements, applicant ranking criteria, and other important information for prospective students. IMPORTANT NOTE: Applicants to the Mammography program must hold the following current credential in order for their application to be considered: ARRT certification in radiography RT (R).

Information Sessions

Information sessions are provided each application cycle for prospective students. The purpose of these sessions is to help students to decide if this program and profession will be right for them, and to walk students through the application and admissions process. Attendees will also be able to ask the faculty questions about the program and the profession.

Attendance at an information session is strongly encouraged for all students. Refer to the current Admissions Information Book for information regarding whether your application will be ranked based on attendance.

Students interested in the PVCC CT, MRI, or Mammography programs are highly encouraged to attend one of our Advanced Imaging Programs Information sessions in person (or via Zoom). This is an excellent opportunity to ask questions about the admissions process. These sessions will be held via Zoom. Meeting invitations will be sent to participants' email addresses a few days before the session's scheduled date.

Space is limited and registration is required for attendance. Please register via SignUp for one of the information sessions.
