Hello all, I was planning on attending a four year college, and was wondering if it would be possible to get the certification needed for a Radiology/Radiography technician while there. I'm currently planning on SDSU, but I could change my mind if a course is not available there.

Thank you in advance for your help.

Accredited Radiography Programs (2- and 4-year) are listed here

The resulting list will be sorted by state.

Good luck!

So the basic idea I am getting from that list, is that you cannot go to a 4 year university and get certification? All I see are community colleges and hospitals.

Well, I don't know - where are you?

If you noticed, the 3rd entry on the list (being in alpha order by state) is the University of Alaska. Then there's the U of Alabama (multiple campuses), University of Arkansas, the ever-popular Loma Linda University in California ...

If you already have an AA, you can earn your bachelors from anywhere. Check it out, my sister went there and loved it!

Very Happy
