Pre-requisite Course Work

Students completing prerequisite coursework at other colleges and universities should include course descriptions and course syllabi with the submission of their transcript(s), or contact the SC Records and Registration Office to insure transferability. Completion of prerequisite courses does not guarantee automatic admission to the program.

Once a student has conditional acceptance into the program, the student must provide documentation of immunizations, CPR for Health Care Providers, and successful completion of a background check. Students are responsible for purchasing instruments and required uniforms and for other fees associated with the program.

Upon successful completion of the program, graduates are eligible to take National, Regional and State Board Exams for licensure.
