Special Circumstances AAS Students Priority
MLT 100S and MLT 131S are offered every semester and are required for the 2-year Medical Laboratory Technology Associates of Applied Science (AAS) degree. Pre-MLT or students admitted to the MLT program will be registered in the courses first, and non-MLT students will be admitted if room is available. The exception to this is the spring semester, when any student can apply to the Phlebotomy Certification program with the program coordinators’ approval. Non-MLT admission will be handled on a case by case basis providing clinical sites are available.
