Asked by max kCurrent iam taking some classes at a community college in Illinois, I just got out of high school in june. I will be taking classes at the community college (COLLEGE OF DUPAGE) for the summer,fall and some spring classes. And i want to apply to the program in april 2009 what are my chances of getting into the program after 1year of college are there any other colleges/hospitals in illinois that it will be easier for me to get admission into, for radiography?

In my personal experience, a certificate from a hospital program is better. These are all of the accredited schools in Illinois: SCHOOL OF RADIOGRAPHY SOUTHWESTERN ILLINOIS COLLEGE 2500 CARLYLE AVE BELLEVILLE, IL 62221-5899 Program Director: RHONDA K KERN Telephone: 618-222-5303 SCHOOL OF RADIOGRAPHY SOUTHERN ILL UNIV CARBONDALE CLG OF APPLIED SCIENCE & ARTS CARBONDALE, IL 62901-0000 Program Director: STEVEN C JENSEN Telephone: 618-453-8882 Accepts Advanced placement: Yes SCHOOL OF RADIOGRAPHY KASKASKIA COLLEGE 27210 COLLEGE ROAD CENTRALIA, IL 62801-0000 Program Director: MIMI L POLCZYNSKI Telephone: 618-545-3363 SCHOOL OF RADIOGRAPHY PARKLAND COLLEGE 2400 W BRADLEY AVE CHAMPAIGN, IL 61821-1899 Program Director: KIMBERLY A MILLS Telephone: 217-351-2436 MEDICAL RADIOLOGIC TECHNOLOGY EAST-WEST UNIVERSITY 816 S MICHIGAN AVE CHICAGO, IL 60605 Program Director: EKKEHARD-TEJA WILKE Telephone: 312-939-0111 SCHOOL OF RADIOGRAPHY MALCOLM X COMMUNITY COLLEGE 1900 W VAN BUREN ST CHICAGO, IL 60612-0000 Program Director: MICHAEL L WHITE Telephone: 312-850-7373 SCHOOL OF RADIOGRAPHY TRINITY HOSPITAL 2320 E 93RD ST CHICAGO, IL 60617-0000 Program Director: JOANN KERN Telephone: 773-967-5292 SCHOOL OF RADIOGRAPHY WILBUR WRIGHT COLLEGE 4300 N NARRAGANSETT AVE CHICAGO, IL 60634-0000 Program Director: DENNIS M KING Telephone: 773-481-8880 SCHOOL OF RADIOGRAPHY ADVOCATE ILLINOIS MASONIC 836 WEST WELLINGTON AVE CHICAGO, IL 60657-5193 Program Director: PHILIS A GEORGE Telephone: 773-296-8951 RADIOLOGIC TECHNOLOGY PROGRAM DANVILLE AREA COMM.
