Applicants must also submit documentation of a four-hour radiography job shadowing experience in the Radiology department of a medical facility.

Job shadowing must be verified by submitting the Job Shadowing form with your application. Job Shadowing may be arranged through Aultman Hospital or at another facility, as long as the shadowing experience is with an ARRT technologist.
