Students desiring to enter the clinical laboratory sciences may secure preparatory training at Missouri State University. All the requirements for the Bachelor of Science must be met with a minimum of 95 credit hours completed prior to entry into the clinical phase of the program (usually the fourth year). For the major, the University will grant 30-39 hours of upper division credit in medical technology upon completion of the work given in an NAACLS approved school of medical technology. The actual number of hours granted depends on what clinical school of medical technology the student attends. Before a student is accepted and matriculates to an approved school, he/she must secure a letter from the Records Office that indicates the completion of all requirements for the degree other than the training at the school of medical technology.
