This degree begins with three years of study at Saint Peter\u2019s University completing the health science major requirements (see above), followed by two years of study, including summers, at Englewood Hospital School of Radiography. Students are awarded the BS degree from Saint Peter\u2019s University upon documented evidence of successfully completing the Englewood Hospital School of Radiography program, but prior to taking the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists (ARRT) exam. The successful completion of this program does not confer eligibility for advanced certification or licensure.<\/p>\n<p>Students in this track are admitted to Saint Peter\u2019s University into the Health Sciences, Radiography Track. Students apply for Conditional Admit Status to Englewood Hospital School of Radiography at the start of their third year at Saint Peter\u2019s, and the granting of Conditional Admit Status is at the sole discretion of Englewood Hospital School of Radiography.<\/p>\n<p>Students must meet the admission requirements of the School of Radiography, be recommended by the Program Director, and successfully complete an interview at Englewood Hospital School of Radiography. Once students with Conditional Admit Status successfully complete the required spring semester courses of their third year, they may apply for Admit Status through the Admissions Office of Englewood Hospital School of Radiography. Students must satisfy all of the admission requirements of the School of Radiography, including volunteer service and the required level of performance on an entrance examination, TEAS V. The granting of admission is at the sole discretion of each individual School of Radiography.<\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-88fd5a29-7fff-e1ba-30e3-f7d04dcdcdfc\">Medicinal Chemistry (25-26 credits)\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-88fd5a29-7fff-e1ba-30e3-f7d04dcdcdfc\">Developed in consultation with the Department of Chemistry<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span id=\"docs-internal-guid-88fd5a29-7fff-e1ba-30e3-f7d04dcdcdfc\">For students interested in the science behind medications and the development of new drugs.
