I really wanted to go here for radiologic Technology I heard they have one of the best programs. I was offered a full ride scholarship for a college within my home town and it was hard to pass that up. I plan on continuing my education and going to TJC for Sonography after I graduate from my college in May of 2021. I cant wait!
