My daughter wants to go to a two year Radiologic Technican School that will also include her A.S. degree. She will have all her pre-requisites prior to applying in the spring. She wants to go to a school that has housing which we are finding very difficult to locate. We have found one in Texas but would like to find other options. She did find a hospital-based school in Nebraska (24 months) but it did not give an A.S. If you know of any, please post! Thanks!

Houston community college gives you a AS degree for radiology. Not sure about housing. I drove and hour to school everyday!

I think Cyfair community college offers the radiology program too and there are a few more in houston.

Almost every community college in any state these days offers a Radiography program. That's where the 2 year AA/AS degree originated.

Community colleges were designed as commuter schools to address the higher educational needs of the thousands who were unable to afford the traditional, 4 year school with increasing costs for boarding.

That's not to say that there isn't a CC with a boarding option somewhere - the fact that it wouldn't make sense to me doesn't mean much.

You might try here - http://www.tacc.org/ The Texas Association of Community Colleges might be of some help.
