Clinical Laboratory Science
MLT/CLT to Bachelor of Scienc in Clinical Laboratory Science Articulation

General Information

Clinical Laboratory Technician (CLT) or Medical Laboratory Technician (MLT) graduates are encouraged to apply to the UND CLS program. A CLT/MLT graduate will be eligible for the transfer of up to 60 semester credits depending on the curriculum completed. Transfer credits allow the waiver of several science courses in the professional curriculum. The student's record is evaluated and a recommendation made to the Registrar regarding the number of credits to be transferred and the science courses to be waived. The student may be eligible for a shortened professional program based on previous coursework, years of experience working in a clinical laboratory, and a competency assessment. A specific outline for the number of credits that will transfer has been incorporated into articulation agreements with numerous regional technical and community colleges.
