You do not need to attend an information session in order to petition. You may proceed directly to a Petition Session and will be considered for enrollment provided you bring the required documentation. You are responsible for knowing all information to successful petition.
PETITION SESSIONS: The “Petition for Selection” process allows us to choose the 24 students who will enroll in the Rad Tech classes in January of Each year. In order to be considered for selection, you must complete the “Petition Process” that will provide us with documentation necessary to determine which students will enter the Program each January. You must attend and be on time for one of the Group Petition Sessions and bring the required documentation to complete the process. If you cannot come to one of the group sessions, you will need to arrange for an Individual Petition Session by appointment by e-mailing your desire to petition to pwilder@cnm.edu
Students must petition for selection into the Radiologic Technology program. To be considered they will need to have a high school diploma or equivalent, be a CNM student and declare Radiologic Technology as a major, establish a CNM GPA of 2.0 or higher. Ranking for admission will be based upon completion of all the pre-requisite, required Arts & Sciences Courses for the Associate of Science Degree in Radiologic Technology. In addition the declared major date and the number of times a student petitions after they have completed all prerequisite arts and science classes and declared Radiologic Technology as you’re major at CNM may also be used in the selection process. The last petitioning session ends the petition process and no more additional petitions will be accepted after that date and time
