What Our Radiation Therapy Graduates Say

Patricia Connolly

I decided to pursue a degree in Radiation Therapy after going through this type of treatment myself, in my 30’s. I researched many other programs in other states, but none quite like the one I found at Cambridge College. Cambridge was willing to evaluate my previous credits and apply them to my schooling in their program. The class sizes are very manageable. I would recommend Cambridge College to all walks of life, whether you have just graduated high school, or are returning to school after many decades in the workforce.

Brian Privett

I began to research careers, and after some time I found Radiation Therapy at Cambridge. Because of my service I had questions about funding for the school but the financial aid department was very helpful and got everything set up for me through the Post 9/11 GI Bill. The program director and clinical coordinator were very attentive to the needs of all the students.
