USU/WSU Nursing Program
Utah State University offers a pre-nursing program. The goal of our academic advisors is to help students prepare for the Weber State University nursing program by completing course prerequisites and other program requirements. As a cooperative program, Weber State maintains and administers a nursing location on the Utah State Main Campus in Logan, Utah.
If you apply to WSU-Logan Campus nursing program, and are accepted, you will become a Weber State student attending classes on the USU campus and take advantage of the clinical opportunities at nursing homes and hospitals in Cache Valley. Competition for this program is very high with many students competing for 30 potential positions. It is recommended to prepare early and meet with your nursing advisors for more information and academic advice.

WSU Radiologic Sciences
Radiologic Sciences is a medical field that uses ionizing radiation, sound waves and magnetic fields to produce medical images for diagnostic purposes or to treat diseases by combining medical procedures with technology.
Before students may apply to a specialty within Radiology, students must first go through our Radiologic Technology/Radiography program. The Radiologic Technology/Radiography program is a five-semester Associate of Applied Science (AAS) degree, and upon completion, you will be eligible to sit for your American Registry of Radiologic Technologist (ARRT) registry examination.
Once a student is ARRT certified, or eligible to sit for their ARRT credential, they may then apply to one of our Bachelor degree or Certificate programs in any of the Advanced Radiologic Sciences. A Radiology Practitioner Assistant/Radiology Assistant (RPA/RA) program is also available.
WSU Dental Hygiene
Utah State University offers the prerequisites for the WSU Dental Hygiene program. Weber State University's Department of Dental Hygiene offers two degree options: an Associate of Science and a Bachelor of Science -- the only bachelor's degree in dental hygiene available in Utah.
The Dental Hygiene Program is three years in length. The first year consists of prerequisite courses that may be taken at any college or university. The next two years (four semesters) must be taken on a full-time basis and include professional dental hygiene courses offered on the WSU campus. An optional fourth year leads to the bachelor's degree.
