**The option to enroll in an MRI clinical rotation at an MCPHS University affiliated hospital will be offered to students in the New England region during the fall semester. Students outside of New England, or those in New England who do not wish to be placed by MCPHS University, are responsible for finding their own clinical site placement to complete the required ARRT Clinical Experience Requirements. Students who are placed by MCPHS University and/or assisted by MCPHS University in securing clinical placements will pay tuition equal to 8 credits in the fall (eight additional credits are charged for the MCPHS University clinical placement).
