Can I increase my chances to be chosen for acceptance into the program? Yes, you can! There are many ways that students can look more impressive on paper.
How? On Paper: Your letter of intent should include some of the previously suggestions. It should also demonstrate good writing skills. It should be typed and after you have typed it have someone look it over for correct spelling and punctuation. While you are waiting to be accepted into a class for the next September semester, take all of the prerequisites needed for Radiology. If you have completed all prerequisites, take more Liberal Arts classes that may be beneficial to your application. For example (language, sciences). If you have done poorly in a math or any of the science courses, you might want to consider retaking the course. A poor grade (C or lower) may not be your academic norm and personal reasons could have played havoc on your grade. Math and the science courses are areas in which applicants must be strong to be considered for the program. Take a look at the Rubric the Admissions is using to accept.
