Observation experience in our department allows us to receive a first glance at all prospective applicants. Information from your experience will be relayed to the admissions committee and is utilized during the selection process. Some notes on our observations:
- Observations are a required part of the application process for our Nuclear Medicine Technology, Ultrasonography, MRI Primary Pathway, and our Radiography programs.
- For CT, Mammography and the MRI post-primary pathway programs observation is not required but you may submit a general request and we will accommodate them as best as possible.
Employees of University of Utah Health: Please complete the observation application as well for our tracking purposes. You will be able to select if you are employee and that will fast-track your application for approval, as you will not need to resubmit most of the documents.
