MEDICAL TECHNOLOGY (B.S.) APSU has a four-year, campus based program through affiliation with area hospitals. Students must complete an admission packet to apply to the senior year and then, upon acceptance, complete the senior courses listed in the curriculum below. Applicants must have a minimum 2.5 cumulative GPA and an overall minimum GPA of 2.5 in science related courses. Applications to the senior year are made available in October for each class beginning the following June with the Summer term. Requirements for acceptance include: physical, application and essay, coursework completion, official transcripts, references, and interview. The courses which comprise the senior year, include both campus-based didactic courses and practical courses at affiliate hospital clinical laboratories. Accepted students will complete the program the following Summer at the end of Summer I term. Upon successful completion of the four-year program, a B.S. degree is awarded. A certificate is awarded for completion of the professional program in the senior year. In addition, APSU has an affiliation with Vanderbilt University Medical Center Laboratory and arrangements may be made to send students to this hospital-based program. Students desiring to enter the program should file an application to VUMC at the beginning of the junior year. Students may be eligible for B.S. degree (in absentia) after successful completion of the professional school, provided the requirements through the junior year have been met. Students may elect to transfer to other accredited professional schools of medical technology after completing three years at APSU, and should consult with their academic advisor to select courses required by the particular school. Acceptance into the hospital-based programs as well as the senior year of the campus-based program is competitive and is controlled by the respective Admissions Committees.
