Radiation sciences offers concentrations in radiography, nuclear medicine technology or radiation therapy.
Admission to and satisfactory completion of the one-year preparation program does not constitute admission to the sophomore year professional program in the School of Allied Health Professions. In the fall of the year preceding the year of desired admission, the student must apply separately to the professional program through the VCU Office of Undergraduate Admissions, P.O.

Admission into the program is based on scholastic record, demonstrated aptitude and interest, and a personal interview conducted by the departmental admissions committee.
