AS Radiologic Technology with DeKalb Medical Advisement Form (PDF file - requires Acrobat Reader)
Students must be admitted to both Georgia Perimeter College and DeKalb Medical School of Radiologic Technology. Students must receive credit for all required technical courses through DeKalb Medical School of Radiologic Technology and must also receive credit for all required general education courses through Georgia Perimeter College to earn an Associate of Science in Radiologic Technology. Transfer students should be aware of the GPC residency requirement. Twenty-five of the 31 hours of general education requirements must be earned at GPC.
Georgia Perimeter College is accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools’ Commission on Colleges to award associate degrees. The DeKalb Medical School of Radiologic Technology is not accredited by the Commission on Colleges and the accreditation of Georgia Perimeter College does not extend to or include the DeKalb Medical School of Radiologic Technology or its students. Although Georgia Perimeter College accepts certain course work in transfer toward a credential from the DeKalb Medical School of Radiologic Technology or collaborates in other ways for generation of course credits or program credentials, other colleges and universities may or may not accept this work in transfer, even if it appears on a transcript from Georgia Perimeter College. This decision is made by the institution subsequently considering the possibility of accepting such credits.
