Applying to the Program

Thanks for your interest in the Radiological Sciences program at Penn State Schuylkill. The application cycle for fall 2025 admission begins Thursday, August 1, 2024, and the process for applying to our program is outlined below. Students must have a completed application on file by December 1 for priority consideration. Admission decisions will begin to be released at the end of December. Students who apply later will be considered for admission on a rolling basis. In addition, Penn State Schuylkill will maintain a waitlist of qualified applicants and offer rolling admission until the start of the fall semester based on capacity.  

The Radiological Sciences program uses selective criteria for admission to the program.

General education courses can transfer and satisfy program requirements. To help you determine how transfer credits may work into the degree you can use our online transfer credit tool.
