After successful completion of the Radiologic Technology pathway and the passage of a national exam, students may become registered radiologic technologists (radiographers).

As part of Georgia State University, Perimeter College is accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools: Commission on Colleges (SACS-COC) to award associate degrees. Contact the Commission on Colleges at 1866 Southern Lane, Decatur, GA 30033-4097 or call 404-679-4500 for questions about the accreditation of Georgia State University.

The DeKalb Medical School (Emory Decatur Hospital) of Radiologic Technology and The Grady Health System School of Radiologic Technology are not accredited by the Commission on Colleges, and the accreditation of Georgia State University does not extend to or include the DeKalb Medical School (Emory Decatur Hospital) of Radiologic Technology or its students or The Grady Health System School of Radiologic Technology or its students.

Although Perimeter College accepts certain course work in transfer toward a credential from the DeKalb Medical (Emory Decatur Hospital) School of Radiologic Technology and The Grady Health System School of Radiologic Technology or collaborates in other ways for generation of course credits or program credentials, other colleges and universities may or may not accept this work in transfer, even if it appears on a transcript from Georgia State University. This decision is made by the institution  considering the possibility of accepting such credits.
