About the Program

Consistent with the Mission and goals of the College of Lake County, the Medical Imaging Program strives for excellence in preparing students for entry-level positions in the Medical Imaging profession. By maintaining high academic and clinical standards, graduates receive an Associate of Applied Science degree in Medical Imaging, become eligible for certification as Registered Radiologic Technologists, and attain clinical competency as entry-level professional radiographers.

  • The number of students who can be admitted to the Medical Imaging Program each year is limited. Therefore, a screening process is used to select the academically best qualified those who request consideration. The screening deadline is the first Wednesday in March. Preference is given to residents of Community College District 532 (CLC) and residents of other community college districts with which CLC has a Joint Education Agreement. To find out more about the screening process, please click on the Program Requirements link below.
  • Medical Imaging information sessions are held the first Monday of each month (except January, June, and July) at 2:00pm. Please call 847 543-2042 for the room number. Attendance at an information session is required for screening eligibility.

Entrance Exam:

Update regarding required entrance test.  The HOBET entrance test will NOT be used for Medical Imaging program applications after March 2010.  The Medical Imaging program will use the NLN Pre-Admission RN Exam for the screening process effective with the March 2011 deadline.  Therefore:

1.  If you intend to apply for the spring 2010 screening, take the HOBET test before the Medical Imaging program's March 2010 screening deadline.

2.  If you do NOT intend to apply for the spring 2010 screening, do NOT take the HOBET test as it will not be accepted in the 2011 screening process.  Effective during the 2011 screening process, you must take the NLN Pre-Admission RN Exam to apply for the Medical Imaging program.
