Other Notes

Additionally, criminal background checks and drug screenings are required by clinical sites for all students accepted into the Medical Laboratory Technology program. These screenings will be conducted at the student’s expense by a professional and independent vendor. Failure to achieve acceptable standards for these screenings will result in the denial of clinical privileges. Successful completion of clinicals is required for program completion. Failure to comply with any requirement or condition will result in the loss of your seat in the class.
- All students will be required to attend a mandatory program orientation before registering for classes. This is separate from New Student Orientation. Students who fail to attend orientation may lose their seats in the program.
