Cardiovascular Intervention Technology (CVIT) Program of Study
Upon completion of the radiography primary program, the student may apply to any of the second or advanced certificate radiation sciences programs.
UNMC will accept a maximum of 6 College Level Examination Program (CLEP) or Advanced Placement (AP) semester hours. In addition, UNMC does not accept CLEP credits in math or science and will only accept a maximum of 3 CLEP credit or AP credit hours in English composition.
Acceptance to the CVIT program is competitive. Participation in this pre-professional program at WSC and/or previous acceptance into a primary professional program (e.g. radiography or nuclear medical technology) does not guarantee acceptance into a CVIT program.
College prerequisites and course requirements are subject to change by radiation science program at UNMC.
Applicants must have achieved a minimum 2.5 undergraduate GPA and a 3.0 GPA (on a 4.0 scale) in their professional training in radiography.
