Compiled by Radif Partners · How the rules were read
The federal IPEDS survey, filed by every college that takes federal student aid, counts the awards of each program by its CIP code: 51.0911 for radiologic technology and radiography. For July 2023 to June 2024, 482 programs in the 50 states and DC reported 11,531 radiography awards: 7,835 associate degrees, 2,051 certificates, 1,497 bachelor’s degrees and 145 master’s degrees. The three largest programs were Keiser University-Ft Lauderdale in Fort Lauderdale, Florida (373), Weber State University in Ogden, Utah (298), The College of Health Care Professions-Northwest in Houston, Texas (237). The median yearly in-state tuition and required fees for 2023-24 was $4,868 at public schools and $20,067 at private ones. Hospital-based programs that take no federal aid do not report to IPEDS, so a few accredited programs are missing; the accrediting body’s own list is the reference for accreditation, which IPEDS does not record.
