Affiliated Universities, Financial Aid and Tuition
Trinity Health Radiologic Technology Program does not provide any financial aid. Students in need of financial aid must go through their college of enrollment. The Program is an approved program under Title 38 of the United States Code for students not co-enrolled in an affiliated university who are eligible for that type of educational assistance. Contact the program director or see the Policy Manual for more details.
If accepted into our Program, students enrolled at one of our affiliated universities – Minot State University and the University of Mary (Bismarck) – register for their school’s required radiologic science clinical course and pay tuition directly to the university. The universities reimburse the Program according to our tuition affiliation agreements (MSU – 85% and Univ. of Mary 80%). Credits earned by completing our program fulfill the required clinical credits for baccalaureate degrees from the affiliated universities and the ARRT requirement to apply to take the registry exam. See the Policy Manual for more information. Please contact your university advisor for specific questions regarding university coursework and requirements in order to complete your chosen degree.
