The following Mayo School of Health Sciences policies affect the
students enrolled in the Radiation Therapy programs at Florida Community
College at Jacksonville who perform their clinical training internships
at Mayo Clinic:

Fluency in written and spoken English is essential to succeed
in the program and to ensure patient safety. If English is a second
language, you must be able to demonstrate fluency. Satisfactory
performance on the Test of English as a Foreign Language examination
or the Michigan Test of English Language Proficiency must be documented
as proof of fluency. Your test results must be less than two years
old.

Health status
Prospective students will undergo a health
review at Mayo Clinic and will have the opportunity to update
or receive the required tests and immunizations cited above. More
information about the health review will be provided after you
have been offered a program appointment. Appointment to the program
depends upon successful completion of the health review.

Prospective students must pass a criminal background check and/or
drug screening required by state laws, any clinical rotation on
the Mayo Clinic campus.
