Notes

Because requirements for admission into clinical programs may change or vary, consultation with a clinical laboratory science advisor is recommended.

The clinical laboratory science curriculum requires 94 semester hours of preclinical courses plus 30 credits obtained through a 10 to 18 month clinical rotation at one of the affiliate hospitals in Kansas City. Admission to the clinical portion of the training is by application and acceptance not a given. Students are expected to have a minimum GPA of 2.0 to 2.5 for both overall work and for the required science courses. All of the requirements for the bachelor’s degree must be complete before the student is allowed to sit for the certification examination.
