Benefits Of Respiratory Therapy
I am emailing you to get your advice. I am currently a Radiography Major and thinking about changing my major to Respiratory Therapy.Unfortunately, I did not petition in time for the Radiography program and will have to wait next year to petition.I don't want to sit around being out of school. I have one more class to take and that to petition for the program and that is Bio 104. I wanted to switch over to Respiratory Therapy care because I think it would be a better option for me at this time and both programs have some of the same courses.I read that the Respiratory Therapy is only offered at Brookdale Community College and that is an hour away.Also wanted to know if I completed all my here I mercer do I have to attend Brookdale Community
